Grown for their attractively patterned foliage that comes in a variety of colours, fittonias will add a bright splash of colour to the home. This plant is sent out as an unnamed and unlabelled fittonia, so the plant you receive may be a different variety to that shown in the photo.
Please note that the pot in the photograph is not supplied with the plant (which is sent out in a simple nursery pot). They do however make excellent potted plants, and if you wish to pot yours up, we do have a wide range of pots on our website to choose from.

Keep well watered (using tepid water) during the growing season, but keep drier during the winter. Lovers of high humidity, avoid placing them next to a radiator, and mist the foliage regularly if they are not grown in a steamy bathroom or kitchen. Maintain temperatures above 15°C in winter.
