🌿 Care & Growing Tips

Growing Golden Mosaic Ctenanthe from a plug is straightforward, even for new plant parents. Here’s how to help it thrive:

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but tolerates low light. Avoid direct sun, which can scorch its leaves.

• Watering: Keep soil evenly moist—never soggy. Water when the top inch feels dry. This plant loves humidity; mist occasionally or use a pebble tray.

• Soil: Use a well-draining indoor potting mix with added perlite or coco coir for aeration.

• Temperature: Warm, consistent indoor temps (65–80°F) are best. Protect from drafts.

• Fertilizer: Feed monthly in spring and summer with a balanced houseplant fertilizer.

• Repotting: Transplant as it fills its plug, giving it space to spread into a 4–6" pot to start.

Tip: Leaves may fold slightly in the evening as part of its natural rhythm, don’t worry, this is part of its charm.

🌍 Cultural & Botanical Notes

Native to Brazil’s tropical forests, Ctenanthe species are members of the Marantaceae family, cousins to prayer plants and calatheas. Their natural variegation evolved to maximize light absorption in dappled understory conditions, making them especially suited to modern indoor environments. The Golden Mosaic variety stands out as one of the most vivid and decorative cultivars, long admired by collectors for its glowing golden hues.
