Below is a general care guide for Gesneriaceae plants which can slightly differ depending on variety.
Light & Temperature
Gesneriaceae plants generally prefer bright, indirect light and moderate temperatures. They thrive in conditions with consistent warmth and prefer to be protected from direct sunlight.
Watering, Humidity & Misting
These plants prefer consistently moist but not waterlogged soil. They benefit from higher humidity levels, making them well-suited for regular misting or placement in a humid environment.
Soil and Repotting
A well-draining, peat-based soil mix is ideal. Repotting should be done when the plant has outgrown its container or every 1-2 years to refresh the soil.
Propagation
Gesneriaceae plants can be propagated through division, leaf cuttings, or stem cuttings, typically in the warmer months to promote successful development.
Fertiliser
Fertilize with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer during the growing season to support healthy growth and flowering.
Toxicity
It's important to be cautious with pets and young children around Gesneriaceae plants, as some species may be mildly toxic if ingested.
Possible Issues
Overwatering and low humidity can lead to issues such as root rot and pests. Additionally, inadequate light can result in poor growth and reduced flowering.
