What is the best light for Pink Polka Dot Plants?
Pink Polka Dot Plants will display their brightest colors in bright, indirect light.
What type of soil is best for my Pink Polka Dot Plant?
Pink Polka Dot Plants prefer a loose soil with lots of drainage and organic matter. Mixing a potting soil with peat and cactus soil mix will introduce both of those elements to your potting soil.
How do I water Pink Polka Dot Plants?
Pink Polka Dot Plants are very communicative since they will droop if they need more water, and spring right back up once they've had their fill. Let the soil dry out some between watering. If unsure, check the top inch of soil to see if it is dry to the touch. If not yet, then it is OK to wait a little longer.
How do I fertilize Pink Polka Dot Plants Plants?
Pink Polka Dot Plants will benefit from a 1/2 strength usage of a general purpose liquid fertilizer every few weeks in summer and again in the spring. Make sure to prune your Polka Dot Plants to maintain the shape that you want, or else they can grow to be too leggy.
