🌱 Care Tips for Lipstick Plant ‘Black Pagoda’ 🌱
1. Light: Loves bright, indirect light. Too much direct sun can scorch the leaves, but low light can limit flowering.

3. Humidity: Thrives in higher humidity—mist occasionally or use a pebble tray to boost moisture around the plant.
4. Feeding: Use a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).
5. Pruning: Prune after flowering to encourage bushier growth and keep its shape tidy.
6. Repotting: Repot every couple of years or when the plant outgrows its pot.
7. Pet Safety: Non-toxic to pets—safe for curious cats and dogs!
