Care & tips for the Codiaeum Petra - 170cm
To keep your Codiaeum Petra looking its best, we recommend misting it regularly with water. That keeps the plant healthy and the leaves look fresher, because dust can't settle on them. Misting also helps you stay ahead of spider mites and mealybugs.
How much water does the Codiaeum Petra - 170cm need?
For the Codiaeum Petra it's important that the soil stays constantly moist, because once the root ball has dried out it's hard to bring back. Give the plant small amounts of water several times a week, and make sure no layer of water is left standing in the pot.
How much light does the Codiaeum Petra - 170cm need?
The Codiaeum likes to stand in daylight, and that's exactly what brings out its beautiful colours. If few or no new leaves are appearing, the plant is probably standing too dark and it's worth moving it somewhere lighter.
Is the Codiaeum Petra - 170cm toxic?
The Codiaeum Petra belongs to the spurge family, and the sap it can release is irritating to the skin. Be careful with clothing too, because the sap leaves stubborn stains. It's also important to protect this plant from pets and small children, as swallowing the sap can be dangerous.
