Care Instructions

Thank you for starting these from cuttings. We hope you find it as incredible as we do watching new life take root and flourish over time. They’re packed in sphagnum to stay humid on the way to you. Over time, you may notice the moss come back to life too. This is normal.

-Place in bright, indirect light.
-Keep the sphagnum moss lightly moist (not soggy) until roots form.
-Open the lid every other day (or so) to let fresh air in. The lid helps keep humidity high, but we don’t want it to suffocate either.
-Once rooted, transfer to well-draining soil and water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

Thank you for giving these a chance to grow roots with you.

-Place in bright, indirect light. Avoid harsh afternoon sun for the first week or two.
-Water when the top of the mix feels dry. Small pots dry out faster than they look.
-Keep them in their nursery pot for at least a week unless the mix is staying wet.
-Hold off on fertilizer for 3–4 weeks after arrival.
-When roots fill the pot, move up only one size into well-draining soil and water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

-Place in bright, indirect light. More light usually means more splits over time.
-Water when the top 1–2 inches of mix are dry. They dislike sitting soggy.
-Use a well-draining, chunky mix. Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.
-Add a pole or stake when they start reaching.
-Skip fertilizer for the first month after they arrive.

-Place in bright, indirect light.
-Soak 20–40 minutes about once a week (more often in dry indoor air). Shake off well.
-Always dry with airflow so water doesn’t sit in the center.
-Mist in between soaks if your home is very dry, but they still need to dry within a few hours.
-Rain, distilled, or filtered water is kindest. A very light fertilizer once a month in the growing season is plenty.
-Don’t trap them in a closed container with no air.

-Place in bright, indirect light (gentle morning sun is welcome).
-Use a very well-draining, low-nutrient mix (peat + perlite or a ping mix). Never regular potting soil.
-Water with distilled, rain, or RO water only. Keep the mix lightly moist in the growing season—not soggy.
-A shallow tray of water under the pot works well; don’t let the crown sit underwater.
-Don’t fertilize the soil. They catch tiny insects on their leaves instead.
-Many Mexican pings like it a bit drier in winter.

-Keep the container closed for a day or two after arrival so they can rest.
-Open the lid every other day (or so) to let fresh air in. The lid keeps humidity high, but we don’t want them to suffocate either.
-If they wilt hard, close it again and slow down. Stretch this over 1–2 weeks.
-When they’re used to room air, gently rinse off any remaining gel and plant into a light, well-draining mix.
-Keep humidity higher at first (dome or bag with air breaks). Keep the mix lightly moist, not soggy.
-Bright, indirect light. No strong sun until you see new growth.
-Once growing, treat like a small tropical: well-draining soil and water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.
