Originating from the West Indies and warmer regions of the Americas, this evergreen tree with a curious pyramidal habit is much sought-after for its handsome, leathery leaves and pleasingly angular shape. This hydroponically (soil-less) grown plant comes in a simple glass apothecary vase with a wooden LED light base.
Turn it on with the press of a button for a really unique and atmospheric display. Takes 3 x AAA batteries (supplied). - Home care: Supplied as a rooted plant without water, simply fill with water on arrival and every few weeks replace the water to keep it fresh and the plant provided with nutrients. Small levels of micro and macro nutrients exist within the water so this should be sufficient. Eventually, the plant will outgrow the vase and a new cutting will need to be placed in it. The LED light is only for ambience and does not stimulate any growth, so we recommend placing it in a well-lit room. The product is only sold as a whole, and no replacement parts are available.
