Description
Th eye-catching, tropical Stromathe Triostar has impressive foliage in emerald greens, striking pinks, and creamy pearls. Along with its lush, vibrant leaves, you will love watching the leaves of your Stromanthe Triostar move with the light throughout the day—literally reaching for the stars as the light fades.
A native of the Brazilian rainforest, this plant naturally grows along the forest floor. Thriving in bright indirect light, it is relatively low-maintenance and is a non-toxic plant for pets and humans. Boost the humidity to help this plant thrive. One of the Triostar’s most fascinating traits is its movement. Throughout the day, its leaves tilt and reach toward changing light, a behavior known as nyctinasty. As evening falls, the leaves fold upward, almost as if the plant is resting. This rhythmic motion gives the Stromanthe Triostar a lively, almost animated quality that adds energy to your indoor jungle.
The Stromanthe Triostar is non-toxic to pets and humans, making it a worry-free addition for cat and dog owners. To help it thrive, keep the soil evenly moist and increase humidity with a pebble tray or humidifier. Regular misting and monthly feedings during the growing season will encourage lush, colorful growth.
STYLING TIPS
Bring a splash of tropical color to your home by styling the Stromanthe Triostar in a bright living room, cozy reading nook, or sunny bathroom. Its variegated leaves complement neutral tones, wood textures, and natural décor. Pair it with our clay colored pot to highlight its pink and cream accents. For a striking contrast, display it near plants with deep green foliage like a ZZ Plant or Fiddle Leaf Fig.
