Plant Care – Colocasia Lemon Lime Gecko
Light: Place the Colocasia Lemon Lime Gecko under bright and indirect sunlight. Avoid direct sunlight in the afternoon as it may cause the leaves to burn and dry up. Its leaves might burn under bright sunlight, however, the plant can adapt and do just fine under such conditions.
Water: We recommend watering it once a week and allowing the surface of the soil to dry up between watering. This plant loves water; provide them with extra water on a saucer. Or place them in the pond with a water level of two inches to reach their water needs.
Soil: The Colocasia does well in a loose and well-draining potting mix that can retain moisture.
Fertiliser: Fertilise your plant with a slow-releasing fertiliser once a month. Be sure to water your plant after fertilising.
Humidity Requirement: Medium to High
