Red Nerve Plant
Fittonia Albivenus
A little particular, but nothing you can’t handle.
- Light. Easygoing about light, and happy in a shadier spot out of any direct sun.
- Water. Likes to stay evenly moist, never left bone dry.
- Humidity. Loves a humid, steamy spot; a bright bathroom or a pebble tray keeps her glowing.
- Soil. Likes a moisture-retentive mix that stays a touch damp.
- Growth. A slow, gentle grower, in no rush at all.
Safe to keep around curious pets and little ones.
Thrives in low to medium indirect light. Keep soil consistently moist but never waterlogged. Loves high humidity, so a terrarium or pebble tray works great. Sensitive to dry air and drought, so do not let it dry out completely. Medium difficulty.
