How to care for your Plerandra
Use these instructions to care for a Plerandra. This guide will tell you how to water a Plerandra; its light, temperature, humidity preferences and any additional care it might need to help it grow.
Plerandra elegantissima ‘Bianca’
Your Aralia Bianca will do best in bright indirect light, but will also tolerate low to medium light conditions.
Water when 50% of the soil volume is dry. Water until liquid flows through the drainage hole at the bottom of the pot and discard any water that has accumulated in the saucer.
Your Aralia Bianca will love a boost in humidity from time to time but will tolerate average household humidity. If the air gets too dry in the winter, your plant may start to drop leaves. Increase humidity by placing a humidifier nearby or using a pebble tray. Another way to increase relative humidity is to group several humidity-loving plants together in a small area, creating a micro-climate.
Average indoor temperatures are great for your Aralia Bianca–between 60-80°F.
Feed once every other month during the spring and summer with a liquid fertilizer for indoor plants.
False Threadleaf Aralia is toxic to humans and pets if ingested.
False Threadleaf Aralia plants are sensitive to being moved too often–if you have to move it around in your home, do so gradually. Any sudden changes can shock it and cause leaves to drop.
