Horty Hints

Leaning tower of leaves! As the plant grows it may become top heavy and the moss pole can start to lean. Straighten the moss pole up and pack compost in tight around it using your fingertips, being mindful not to damage any roots.

You grow, girl! Increase the bushiness of this plant by pinching out after a leaf node on single stems. This will promote off shoots and more branches, meaning more leaves.

Location, Location, Location! These plants will thrive in almost all levels of humidity, however placing them in high humidity environments will encourage larger leaves.
