Fittonia

Fittonia argyroneura

Also called the Nerve Plant, Fittonia comes in many different colors and remains a small, cute houseplant for most of its life. It only gets around 2-3 inches tall, spreading 8-10 inches, and is great for terrariums. Mist regularly and avoid cold drafts. It is a slow grower, so perfect to take up a tiny pot.

Native to South America, it is known as being a drama queen plant when dehydrated. It will droop and look to be in decline, but with a quick touch of the soil to confirm it is dry, a good soak will perk it up in no time!

Light:

Indirect light to moderate light. Can tolerate lower light.

Water:

Keep moist. Will wilt if too dry but a good soak will perk it up!

Varieties:

Mostly different colors like red and white.
