Fittonia 'White Nerve Plant'

Fittonia, or nerve plant, thrives in consistently moist soil. It's best to water it when the top layer of soil starts to feel dry. However, take care to avoid waterlogging the soil or allowing the plant to sit in standing water, as this can lead to root rot. Regular but moderate watering is key to its health.

Fittonia, or the nerve plant, prefers bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can scorch its delicate leaves. While it can tolerate lower light levels, too little light may cause its vibrant vein coloration to fade. An ideal spot would be near a north or east-facing window with filtered light. Adjust placement based on the plant's response and your home's specific lighting conditions.

Fittonia (nerve plant) is non-toxic to cats and dogs, making it generally pet-friendly.
