✂️ Care
CO₂ and a nutrient-rich substrate promote the growth, leaf quality, and color intensity of this plant. Do not plant the rhizome too deep in the substrate. Remove old leaves at the base to make way for new growth.
💡 Planter's tip
Place as a focal point in the midground. Combine with green plants for a strong color contrast.
