Points of interest and size

  • One live Fittonia Jolly Lemon in a 2.5-inch nursery grow pot.
  • A small plant when shipped; an established indoor plant can reach about 6–12 inches tall and spread roughly 12–18 inches with time and care.

Care guide

  • Light: Give medium to bright indirect light. Avoid harsh direct sun, which can scorch delicate leaves; very dim spots may slow growth.
  • Water: Keep the mix lightly and evenly moist, not waterlogged. Check often and water when the surface begins to dry, allowing excess to drain; this small pot can dry quickly. Avoid letting the root ball dry completely.
  • Soil: Use a moisture-retentive but airy houseplant mix with perlite in a pot with drainage holes.
  • Humidity and temperature: It prefers moderate to high humidity and warm, stable indoor temperatures. Keep away from cold drafts and drying heater or AC vents.
  • Feeding: In spring and summer, use balanced houseplant fertilizer at a diluted label rate about monthly during active growth; reduce or pause in winter.
  • Pruning: Pinch growing tips to encourage fuller growth, and trim leggy stems or damaged leaves with clean scissors.
  • Repotting: Check roots as the plant fills its small pot. If crowded, move up only one pot size into fresh airy mix without burying stems deeper.
  • Propagation: Root healthy stem-tip cuttings with a node in water or lightly moist mix under warm bright indirect light.

Pet safety

Fittonia is generally considered non-toxic to cats and dogs. Keep plants out of reach of pets that chew leaves.
