-
Light: Prefers bright, indirect light, mimicking its natural epiphytic habitat. Avoid direct sunlight which can scorch the delicate young leaves.
-
Temperature: Thrives in warm and consistent temperatures between 18-25°C (64-77°F). Protect from cold drafts.
-
Humidity: Requires high humidity levels, ideally 70% or higher, to support healthy development of the young foliage.
-
Watering: Keep the potting mix consistently moist but well-draining. Due to the young nature of the plant, avoid letting the substrate completely dry out.
-
Maintenance: As a baby plant, repot according to growth until it reaches medium size. Provide adequate water, light, and fertilizer, but use less than for adult plants to avoid damaging development.
Additional Notes
This young plant has heart-shaped young leaves with strong vigor from the 'Gigi' clone of Ant. nigrolaminum. Its prominent parallel veins form a clear ribbed pattern that grows more distinct as the plant matures. This hybrid combines the best traits of both parents, showing great potential early on.
