Ctenanthe 'Ember-opaline' care

Collectors know Ctenanthe 'Ember-opaline' for its steady pace; it keeps an upright clump even in imperfect corners.

Position it in bright indirect light and rotate the pot monthly for even growth. Water when the leaves just begin to soften. Yellowing lower leaves almost always mean too much, not too little.

Keep it at average room humidity; pot it in a chunky aroid mix and refresh the top layer each spring. Under good conditions it may flower indoors, though the foliage is the point.
