"Cresting" is a rare phenomenon where a plant’s growth deviates from the norm, resulting in a dramatically different appearance. These plants usually take on twisting, and undulating forms, giving plants an appearance reminiscent of coral reefs. While intriguing, this type of growth can be unpredictable and difficult to replicate, adding uniqueness to any plant collection!
CARE:
- Requires consistent bright indirect and direct sunlight. Place in a south- or west-facing window for optimal growth. It can tolerate some partial shade but thrives in a high-light setting. It is normal for the edges of the plant to turn red/purple with increased and consistent exposure to light.
- insufficient light will stunt growth or cause the plant to stretch out, seeking light, and new growth can appear narrow and lanky
- Water infrequently. Allow the soil to dry out completely between watering. Overwatering can lead to root rot.
- Low humidity is ideal for this plant.
- Although this plant is suitable for typical indoor temperatures, it is not frost-tolerant and should be protected from extreme cold.
