Plant Care – Stephania erecta
Light: Place your Stephania erecta under bright and filtered sunlight, and avoid direct sunlight as it will scorch its leaves and dry up. Place your plant near a window and make sure it receives filtered sunlight.
Water: It is easy to overwater your plant due to its caudex’s ability to store water for it. We would recommend allowing the soil to dry up before watering the plant.
Soil: The Stephania erecta thrives in a well-draining potting mix. It will not do well in loamy soil as it will cause water beds.
Fertiliser: The Stephania erecta thrives well even without any fertiliser. If you feel the need to feed it, feed it a small amount every three months.
Humidity Requirement: Medium to High. Give it the occasional mist if the weather is hot and dry.
