Bertolonia marmorata

A charming, low-growing perennial native to the tropical forests of Brazil, prized for its velvety, heart-shaped leaves adorned with intricate silvery-white patterns along the veins. This compact jewel plant features a creeping habit and produces clusters of delicate, star-shaped blooms on slender stalks that appear intermittently throughout the year.

• Light: Bright, indirect light; avoid direct sunlight to protect the satiny texture and vibrant patterns of the foliage.
• Temperature: 65–82°F (18–28°C); thrives in warm, stable conditions and should be protected from cold drafts.
• Humidity: 70–85%; consistent, high atmospheric moisture is essential to maintain the health and rich coloration of its leaves.
• Watering: Keep the substrate consistently moist but well-drained, avoiding water stagnation around the base to ensure optimal root health.

Additional Notes

Best cultivated in a shallow pot or a terrarium setting to showcase its ornamental, creeping growth habit. All plants are shipped bare root; upon arrival, rehydrate in a shaded, intermediate-temperature environment before planting in your preferred substrate.
