Care Tips for Sung of India Plant
Light: The Song of India does not prefer direct sunlight.It grows best in low to medium,indirect sunlight.Direct sun can burn the leaves.However,low light will cause the plant’s yellow-lime striped vibrancy to fade and will turn the plant lanky.
Water: The Song of India requires less water than most indoor plants.When watering, let the water soak through to the roots and tip out any excess water.Always allow the top inch of the soil to dry out before watering. Soggy soil should be avoided.Ensure that the plant has good drainage.Reduce watering in winter.Place the plant on pebbles to ensure that the drain holes and the bottom of the pot are not submerged in water.Ideally,opt for water free from chlorine,fluorides and other chemicals to prevent brown leaf tips.
Soil and fertiliser: The Song of India likes well-drained soil.Make a mixture of regular potting soil and sand and perlite.Keep some rocks at the bottom of the pot and pour over the soil mix.The rocks prevent waterlogging and ensure better drainage.Avoid soggy soil as it can lead to root-rot diseases.Feed the Song of India plant every 15 to 20 days during the growing period with a balanced,water-soluble, mild fertiliser.
Humidity: Song of India requires high humidity to flourish. Brown leaf tips are an indication of low humidity.If the air around the plant is too dry,use a humidifier or occasionally mist the plant to increase humidity.
