Please remember that the plant is living and changing all the time. We always provide healthy and the best quality plants but they may be in different stages of living and growing. During the winter plant when the plant goes into dormancy, you may receive the plant without leaves.

How to look after Stephania

The plant goes into dormancy once a year around winter time, when leaves start turning yellow you can decrease watering. When the plant won’t have any leaves left move it into a darker and colder spot.

After the dormancy ”wakes up” the plant: soaks the caudex in lukewarm water for 24-48h, then move into the soil.

Light

Caudex like this plant can get sunburnt, so please keep it somewhere sunny but never in direct full sunlight.

Water

It is easy to overwater this plant, so let the soil almost completely dry out before watering. In Winter the plant will enter dormancy so resist watering it more than once a month!

Humidity

Give the plant an occasional mist and try to keep humidity over 60%.

The plant is toxic to pets.

How should I care for my Stephania Erecta during its dormancy period?: During winter dormancy, reduce watering to once a month and move the plant to a cooler, darker spot. This helps mimic its natural resting phase.
What is the best way to water my Stephania Erecta to avoid overwatering?: Allow the soil to almost completely dry out between waterings. In the winter, when the plant is dormant, limit watering to once a month to prevent root rot.
Is the Stephania Erecta suitable for homes with pets?: No, this plant is toxic to pets. It’s best to keep it out of reach of cats and dogs to avoid any accidental ingestion.

☀️ Light

☀️☀️▫️ (Medium)

The Stephania Erecta thrives in bright, indirect sunlight. It’s important to avoid placing it in direct sunlight, as the leaves can get sunburnt. A spot near a window with a sheer curtain would be ideal to filter the intense rays.

? Water

?▫️▫️ (Low)

This plant is susceptible to overwatering. Allow the soil to dry out almost completely before watering again. During its dormancy in winter, reduce watering to once a month or less, depending on humidity levels.

?️ Temperature

?️?️▫️ (Average)

Stephania Erecta prefers average room temperatures between 18-24°C. It can tolerate a slight chill but should be kept away from draughty windows and external doors during the colder months.

? Humidity

??▫️ (Moderate)

This plant enjoys a bit of humidity. Aim to maintain indoor humidity levels above 60%. Occasional misting can help, especially during dry, winter months when indoor heating can reduce humidity drastically.

? Repotting

Repotting is seldom needed for the Stephania Erecta, thanks to its slow growth. When the plant outgrows its pot or the soil looks exhausted, consider repotting in spring or after the dormancy period. Use well-draining soil to prevent waterlogging.

? Pet Friendliness

Note: The Stephania Erecta is toxic to pets. It’s best to keep this plant out of reach of curious cats and dogs to prevent any accidental ingestion.

? Recommended locations at home

Place your Stephania Erecta in a living room or study where it can get plenty of indirect light. Avoid placing it near kitchens or bathrooms where the temperature fluctuates more frequently.

? Air Purifying

This plant is not specifically known for its air-purifying abilities, but like many houseplants, it can contribute to improving indoor air quality by increasing humidity and producing oxygen.

✨ Other Plant Features

One of the unique features of Stephania Erecta is its attractive, round caudex which makes it a stunning ornamental piece. As it grows, it develops beautiful vine-like leaves that add a touch of elegance to any space.
