Fittonia (Nerve Plant) Care Guide and Troubleshooting
Care Guide:
Light:
Fittonia, commonly known as the Nerve Plant, thrives in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate lower light conditions, making it an excellent choice for indoor spaces that don’t receive direct sunlight. However, too much direct sun can scorch its delicate leaves, causing them to fade or curl.
Watering:
Fittonia requires consistently moist soil. Water the plant when the top inch of soil feels dry, but avoid letting the plant sit in waterlogged soil, which can lead to root rot. It’s important to maintain a balance, as the Nerve Plant is sensitive to both overwatering and underwatering. During the winter months, reduce watering slightly but do not allow the soil to dry out completely.
Humidity:
This plant loves high humidity and will thrive in environments where the air is moist. If your home is dry, especially in winter, consider placing it near a humidifier. Another option is to place the pot on a tray filled with pebbles and water to increase humidity around the plant.
Temperature:
