Prefers medium levels of indirect light.

Water well and then allow the soil to dry out between each watering.

Enjoys humidity. Spritz occasionally.

Keep this plant in warmer temperatures and avoid drastic changes in temperature.

This plant likes warmer temperatures and can be acclimated to part shade to full sun over time. Bring in when temperatures dip below 35°F.

Add a time-release fertilizer to the top of the soil in the spring. This will be sufficient throughout the season. Do not fertilize in the fall and winter months.

When receiving the plant, do not repot immediately. Wait at least 6-12 months, or until the roots begin to crowd and grow through the drainage holes.

This plant likes to be a little snug in its pot so there is no reason to repot initially. If the soil is aged, repot in the spring, using a 2" bigger pot to keep the roots drier. Use a well-draining indoor potting mix with perlite to help with drainage or use a palm soil mix.

Place a piece of screening at the bottom of the container over the drainage hole to secure the soil and allow water to drain. Add soil to the bottom to elevate the root ball.

Be aware that the roots are brittle, so carefully remove as much soil around the roots as possible to replace the aged soil and fertilizer deposits.

Very carefully lift the plant and release the roots against the existing planter. Use a clean knife or garden trowel to wedge between the pot and the soil to loosen.

Inspect the root ball. Notice if there are any dead or rotting roots and trim off with sterile pruners.

Ensure the plant is sitting about 1" below the edge of the pot to avoid water spillage. Add more soil and backfill around the sides by tamping down. Fill up to the soil line but not over.

Water thoroughly, leaving the soil damp but not soggy. If settling occurs, add more soil.

Remove any dead fronds down to the base of the plant. Remove any debris on the soil and replenish soil when needed.

This plant is hard to propagate. We recommend getting a small plant to nurture!

This plant prefers low to medium light.

Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings.

This plant doesn't require any extra humidity.

Avoid fluctuations in temperature keeping them away from drafts.

Outside: Grow in filtered morning light where nights are above 50°F.

Indoors: This plant prefers bright, to medium indirect light but can tolerate low light conditions.

ZZ plants grow slowly. Therefore, they don't need a lot of fertilizer. Apply a balanced fertilizer in the early spring and summer at half strength.

When receiving the plant, do not repot immediately but wait at least 6-8 months or if the roots are beginning to get crowded and growing through the drainage holes.

Repot in the spring, using a 2" bigger pot. (Too big of a pot could cause the soil to dry slower, which is not helpful.) Use a well-draining indoor potting mix with perlite to help with drainage.

Water your plant in the old pot before transferring over and let sit an hour.

Place a piece of screening at the bottom of the container over the drainage hole to secure the soil and allow to drain. Add soil to the bottom to elevate the rhizomes that mimic potatoes. Lift the plant and release the roots against the existing planter. Use a clean knife or garden trowel to wedge between the pot and the soil to loosen.

Inspect the rhizomes. Notice if there are any dead or rot and trim off with sterile pruners. If the plant is rootbound, separate the roots and rhizomes if you wish to make more plants. If not, remove any weak leaves off the plant to help revitalize their energy.

Ensure the plant is sitting about 1" below the edge of the pot to avoid water spillage. Add more soil and backfill around the sides by tamping down. Fill up to the soil line but not over.

Water thoroughly, leaving the soil damp but not soggy. If settling occurs, add more soil.

When yellowing leaves occur throughout the season on mature plants, remove them. If stems become too arched or heavy, prune back as needed. To clean, shower them with filtered water or non-fluoridated water.

Indoors: Propagate and divide ZZ plants in the early spring when emerging from dormancy.

Pull from the container and brush or wash away the soil carefully around the rhizomes. Carefully divide and repot in a rich, indoor potting soil mix.

Use a container that has drainage and is deep enough for the roots to have room to grow.

Set in medium to bright, indirect sunlight while they are rooting.

Check the moisture and humidity each day and add misting to keep the soil moist while the roots establish.

After 6-8 weeks, roots will begin to establish. You can tug onto the stem to ensure the roots are anchoring well.

Outdoors:

Carefully loosen the soil and dig the roots up and separate the plant in new locations in your garden.

Add rich, damp, and loamy soil in a filtered morning sun location.

Water with filtered or rain water at the soil level.

This plant prefers bright, indirect light to promote blooming!

Keep your plant's soil consistently moist like a wrung out sponge but not soggy. Use your plant watering meter to gauge the moisture levels. Use tepid, unsoftened, filtered, bottled, or tap water sitting 24 hours to release the chemicals. Bottom water since the leaves lay on top of the soil. Let it sit in the bowl of water, checking with your meter when it is registering moist every fifteen minutes until the topsoil has moistened. (Do not let her sit for hours in the water.) Remove and let her drain thoroughly. Once the water is fully drained, place her back into the cache or decorative pot. Slow down watering in the winter months and back to normal in the spring when she's getting more light.

Although this one is from a native humid climate and will grow faster with higher humidity around it, average humidity levels at least 40% is adequate for this plant's needs.

To keep your plant blooming, avoid cooler temperatures under 70°F. If planted outside, sit her in the shade but give her brighter, indirect light. Beware; the sun will scorch her leaves!

Fertilize when watering twice a month in the spring and summer with a 1/2 strength water-soluble fertilizer high in phosphorus to encourage blooms. Drop back your fertilizing in the winter to just once a month.

Repot the Lipstick Plant in the early spring in a well draining soil mix with perlite. Bump up the diameter of your container by two inches and ensure it has adequate drainage holes. Add a piece of screen to keep the soil from spilling out but allowing drainage. Water the plant ahead of time to hydrate. Add the mix to the bottom of the new slightly larger container. Tease the roots if they are root bound in the pot. Carefully place it in the center, adding backfill around the edges. Leave a 1/2 inch of space between the soil and the top edge to prevent water spillage. Water thoroughly and let drain.

Prune the long vines of your Lipstick Plant to control her from looky twiggy. Also, you'll encourage new growth for the following year, which is where flower buds will develop. Only prune 25% of the branches at a time, so you don't miss out on the blooms!

Take several 6-8 inch stem cuttings in the early spring before buds have started forming. Use a knife or sharp pruners, and cut below a node on a softwood stem. Remove the bottom leaves to expose the nodes. Dip the ends in rooting hormone and plant in a mixture of 1/3 vermiculite or perlite and 3/4 regular potting mix. Water and loosely cover the cuttings with a large clear plastic bag to create some humidity around it. Continue to water, and give it the bright, indirect light. After 6-8 weeks, test to see if the roots have anchored. If so, you can remove them from the humidity tent and start to fertilize monthly.

Enjoys bright, indirect & filtered direct sunlight. Can live with low indirect light.

Keep the soil on the dry side. Water well and allow the soil to dry out.

Enjoys high humidity, but does well in low humidity. Spritz occasionally.

Avoid fluctuations in temperature more than 10°F

Outside: Grow in morning light, partial shade (4-6 hours) where nights are above 60°F.

Indoors: This plant prefers bright, to medium indirect light but can tolerate low light conditions.

White Stripe Dragon trees grow slowly. Therefore, they don't need a lot of fertilizer. Apply a balanced fertilizer in the early spring and summer.

When receiving the plant, do not repot immediately but wait at least 6-12 months or if the roots are beginning to get crowded and growing through the drainage holes. This plant grows slowly so you can wait longer than most.

Repot in the spring, using a 2" bigger pot. (Too big of a pot could cause the soil to dry slower, which is not helpful.) Use a well-draining indoor potting mix with perlite to help with drainage.

Water your plant in the old pot before transferring over and let sit an hour.

Place a piece of screening at the bottom of the container over the drainage hole to secure the soil and allow to drain. Add soil to the bottom to elevate the root ball. Lift the plant and release the roots against the existing planter. Use a clean knife or garden trowel to wedge between the pot and the soil to loosen.

Inspect the root ball. Notice if there are any dead or rotting roots and trim off with sterile pruners. If the plant is rootbound, cut through the roots to alleviate continued encircling.

Ensure the plant is sitting about 1" below the edge of the pot to avoid water spillage. Add more soil and backfill around the sides by tamping down. Fill up to the soil line but not over.

Water thoroughly, leaving the soil damp but not soggy. If settling occurs, add more soil.

To reduce the height and promote thick foliage, prune with sterile scissors on the main cane. Cut side-shoots at the junction of the stem. Young shoots will sprout under these cuts. If wanted, use the cuttings for propagation.

Take a cutting and add about an inch of water at the bottom and change the water weekly. Keep the leaf in medium indirect sunlight while they are beginning to form roots. Once roots are at least 1-2 inches long, plant them with rooting hormone mixed into the well-draining succulent and cacti mix. Water and place in bright to medium, indirect light. Use a wooden dowel to train them to stand upright until the roots are more anchored and secure.
