🌱 Care Tips for Polka Dot Plant 🌱
1. Light: Prefers bright, indirect light to keep its colors vibrant. Too little light can make the colors fade.
2. Water: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top half-inch of soil feels dry.
3. Humidity: Loves a bit of extra humidity—mist regularly or keep near other plants.
4. Feeding: Feed every 4 weeks during spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertilizer.
5. Pruning: Pinch back regularly to prevent legginess and encourage a bushier shape.
6. Lifespan: Often grown as an annual or refreshed every year, but with good care, it can live longer indoors.
7. Pet Safety: Non-toxic, but best kept out of reach to avoid leaf nibbling.
