Care information

Flowering size! They don't get too much larger than this, but seem to branch and spread a bit. Think of it like a miniature Sonerila in terms of care and form (both Melastomataceae).

This plant has a small amount of roots currently, but it will be enough to sustain this plant easily.

Grows just like Sonerila. I would recommend an acidic soil media, or something like akadama (clay substrate).

Plant Details

Airflow: Low — Specifically suited for sealed, stagnant environments. These plants do not require active ventilation or fans to prevent bacterial or fungal "melt."
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: 65–75°F — Ideal for "Cool-Growers" or highland species. These plants prefer the lower end of the tropical spectrum and may show signs of stress or heat-dropping leaves if temperatures consistently exceed 80°F.
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.
