Light: Semi-shade to full shade.
Moisture: Lots of water, or moderate water.
Soil: Grow in well drained and moist soils.
Others: Our potted Schismatoglottis calyptrataFeed once monthly with a balanced foliar fertilizer. Generally free from garden pests. However, do be vigilant to check the leaves’ underside for infestation of mealy bugs or red spider mites. We were careless and encountered the following consequences as shown in the image on the right. Thank goodness they revived easily to cheer us again.
Propagation: By seeds or by division of clumping plants that were propagated freely by the production of stolons. The latter is an easier and quicker method… just divide them into starts for several pots or plant them straight into the garden bed.
