How to Grow and Care

Light Needs: 

This variegated houseplant likes medium to bright indirect light. It may hold up to low light, but it won't grow as lush, large, or as fast. Schismatoglottis wallichii does equally well under natural light as artificial light. As is the case with many houseplants from tropical rainforests, avoid exposing it to direct afternoon sun, especially in Southern regions or hot-summer places. Direct sunlight can leave ugly sunburn on the leaves, which looks like bleached patches on the foliage. 

Water Needs:

You may find your Schismatoglottis is a little thirstier than your average houseplant. When it starts to get dry, it will wilt, but like Peace Lily, to which it's closely related, it will recover quickly when watered again. If it dries out too much in between waterings, the leaves may bounce back, but with yellow or brown edges. 
Its tendency to wilt can be a useful trait for houseplant beginners because it tells you when it's thirsty --- and this can be a great reminder to check on your other plants.

Fertilizer Needs:

Your variegated Schismatoglottis houseplant does not require regular feedings to remain healthy, though it certainly benefits from them. You may fertilize once a month if you like. Use a fertilizer designed specifically for houseplants or container plants. Follow the advice on the product container, and never use more fertilizer (in terms of quantity or frequency) than the product's label recommends.
