Fittonia
is a low-growing, herbaceous
plant with egg-shaped, beautifully marked leaves. A fine houseplant for a warm,
humid environment; for window greenhouses, glass cases, a terrarium, or as ground
cover in shady areas of your conservatory.
This variety is at home in light or shade, just be sure to keep it out of direct
sunlight. Always water with lukewarm, soft water and spray occasionally. Give
half-diluted flower fertilizer every 2 weeks.
