Know me

Get to Know Me

I'm a native of Central America, where I grow in freshwater swamps and estuaries. People also know me as a water chestnut because I grow edible nuts when planted outdoors. But I'm just as handsome indoors.

How to take

Care of me

65 to 85° F. Keep me away from cold drafts, air conditioning or heating vents, and hot surfaces like radiators or furnaces.

TEMPERATURE

Allow soil to dry out slightly between waterings.Water using distilled water. You also can leave tap water sitting out for 24 hours before using to allow chemicals to evaporate.

WATERING

Use a liquid or houseplant fertilizer at half strength. Fertilize me monthly during the spring-summer growing season.

FERTILIZER

If you notice spider mites, mealybugs, or whiteflies, gently wipe them off with a 50/50 mix of soap and water.

POTENTIAL PESTS

Trim aerial roots if they get too rowdy.

PRUNING

Transplant me about every two years or when I've outgrown my current pot. Choose a new pot that is 2" wider with plenty of drainage holes. Add a stake or trellis for me to climb.

REPOTTING

I'll thrive in bright to medium light. I love heavy watering and high humidity, so a pebble tray or year-round misting makes me happy. Just don't let me stand in water.
