Ctenanthe lubbersiana ‘Golden Mosaic’ | Established Plant | 6” Nursery Pot

🌿 Wyrd Plant Co. Care Card

🌞 Light: Bright, indirect light is ideal. Plenty of filtered light helps Ctenanthe lubbersiana ‘Golden Mosaic’ maintain its vibrant yellow-gold variegation. It can tolerate medium indirect light, but lower light may result in less pronounced coloration. Avoid prolonged direct afternoon sun.

💧 Water: Water when the top 1 to 2 inches of soil begin to feel dry. Keep the soil evenly and lightly moist without allowing it to become soggy. Ctenanthe can be sensitive to minerals and chemicals in tap water, so filtered, distilled, or rainwater is ideal when available.

💦 Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity, ideally 50% or higher. Higher humidity helps maintain healthy foliage and can reduce crispy leaf edges.

🌡️ Temperature: Thrives between 65 and 80°F (18 to 27°C). Protect from temperatures below 60°F, cold drafts, heating vents, and sudden temperature changes.

🌱 Soil: A rich, airy, well-draining mix that retains some moisture is ideal. A blend containing quality potting soil, perlite, orchid bark, and horticultural charcoal works well.

🌿 Fertilizer: Feed monthly during spring and summer with a balanced liquid houseplant fertilizer diluted to half strength. Reduce feeding during periods of slower winter growth.

🐾 Pet Safety: Considered non-toxic to cats and dogs, making it a wonderful choice for pet-friendly plant collections.

🌎 Difficulty: Easy to Moderate

🌿 About This Plant

Ctenanthe lubbersiana ‘Golden Mosaic’ is a spectacular tropical foliage plant known for its elongated green leaves splashed and streaked with vibrant shades of yellow, cream, and golden chartreuse. Each leaf develops its own unique pattern, giving the entire plant a hand-painted, mosaic-like appearance.

A member of the prayer plant family, Golden Mosaic displays subtle leaf movement in response to changing light throughout the day. Unlike many smaller prayer plants, this variety can develop into a substantial, upright specimen with lush foliage that makes an impressive statement as it matures.

Its combination of bold variegation, graceful growth, and pet-friendly status makes Golden Mosaic an excellent choice for anyone wanting a larger tropical plant with serious visual impact.
