Prized for its dark, hair-tipped conical bumps (bullae) on lime-green leaves, it requires high humidity and bright, indirect light, making it ideal for indoor terrariums or greenhouse cabinets.
Light: Bright, indirect light is best.
Humidity: Requires at least 70-75% humidity to thrive, making it perfect for closed glass displays or indoor greenhouses.
Watering: Allow the top 2-3 cm (or the top 1-2 inches) of soil to dry out between waterings. The plant will actively wilt to let you know it's thirsty and bounce back once watered, but avoid letting water sit directly on the hairy leaves to prevent rot.
Soil & Feeding: Plant in a loose, very well-draining medium. You can apply liquid plant food diluted to half strength every two weeks during the growing season.
