Care information

Domestically propagated. Gorgeous dark, textured foliage that will grow fairly sizable.

I keep these in high humidity and damp Promix HP potting mix and it has done very well for me. Provide good airflow and don't keep the roots too soggy.

Ships semi-bare root. You will receive an item similar to the one pictured.

Family
Melastomataceae
Growth strategy
Terrestrial
Humidity
80–100% — The "Sweet Spot" for most rare tropicals and shinglers. This high-saturation environment is essential for aerial root attachment to hardscape and ensures that delicate foliage maintains its turgidity and sheen.
Lighting
Moderate — Prefers bright, filtered, or indirect light. This is the "sweet spot" for most terrarium species; however, direct sun or high-intensity LEDs will scorch delicate juvenile leaves.
PH
5.5–6.5 — Acidic (Optimal): The “Goldilocks” zone for most tropical terrarium plants, including Marcgravia. This range ensures maximum nutrient availability and mimics the natural decomposition of leaf litter on the rainforest floor.
Sales form
Rooted
Size
Small
Temperature
70–85°F — Standard Tropical Range. This mirrors the natural understory of the rainforest, providing enough warmth for vigorous growth while remaining safe from the extreme heat that can bake a closed glass enclosure.
Watering substrate
Damp — These plants love high moisture levels; the substrate should stay wet to the touch at all times but should not be sitting in a stagnant, waterlogged state.
World
Old World — Native to the Eastern Hemisphere: Africa, Europe, Asia, Australia, and surrounding islands.
