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.
