A new addition to this family of plants, grown for their beautiful leaves - and wow this plant is stunning! The leaves are a rich green with a bright yellow, divided up into small pieces which looks like a mosaic or a stained glass window with slightly scalloped edges. What's more, these plants are tough and resilient, so ideal for beginners or those with busy lives who want something really eyecatching. - Home care: Originating from tropical regions, they like relatively stable temperatures (ideally above 15°C) and a well-lit position that does not get direct sunlight (think steamy jungle!). They like to be kept well watered, although this can be cut back a little in winter, and they thrive in high humidity, so either grow it in a steamy room, mist it with water regularly, and/or sit the pot on a tray of dampened shingle.
