☀️ Light
☀️☀️▫️ (Medium)
The Pink Lady Inchplant thrives in bright, indirect light. It’s perfect for that sunny spot in your home that isn’t directly hit by the harsh midday sun. Too much direct sunlight can fade those lovely pink and white leaves.
💧 Water
💧💧▫️ (Medium)
Water your Pink Lady when the top layer of soil feels dry to the touch. Be cautious not to overwater, as this can lead to root rot. This plant likes to stay moist but not soggy.
💧️ Temperature
💧️💧️▫️ (Average)
This plant prefers average room temperatures between 18°C to 24°C. Avoid placing it in draughty areas or near heating vents which can cause stress to the plant.
💦 Humidity
💦💦▫️ (Moderate)
The Pink Lady enjoys a bit of humidity but doesn’t require the high humidity levels that more tropical plants might. A normal home environment usually suffices, though a light misting now and then can help keep it looking fresh.
💦 Repotting
The Pink Lady Inchplant typically enjoys being a bit root-bound, so repotting isn’t needed too often. When you do repot, choose a container that’s slightly larger and use a well-draining potting mix to ensure healthy growth.
🐾 Pet Friendliness
Important note for pet owners: the Pink Lady Inchplant is not pet-safe. Keep it out of reach of curious nibblers, especially cats and dogs, to avoid any potential health issues.
🪴 Recommended locations at home
This plant is very versatile and looks wonderful in hanging baskets, on high shelves, or trailing over the edges of cabinets. Its compact size makes it ideal for adding a touch of nature to smaller spaces like bathrooms and kitchens.
🌬️🪴 Air Purifying
The Pink Lady Inchplant is not only a visual treat but also serves as an air purifier, helping to remove toxins from indoor environments and improve air quality.

Very happy with the product and the service, thanks 😊
Thank you so much for holding back the delivery due to it clashing with the funeral of my dear mother in law, it was truly appreciated. My wife was also taken aback by your thoughtfulness by including a lovely bouquet of dried flowers and card with kind words. The flowers will always remind us of Elaine and sit pride of place on the sideboard in our dining room. You are truthfully some of the very best people we have dealt with, online and on the phone.
