How to care for your Saxifraga
LIGHT: Medium to bright indirect light. Some early morning and/or evening sun is fine, but avoid strong direct sun.
WATERING: Likes to be slightly moist at all times. Avoid waterlogging but also do not allow to dry out completely.
HUMIDITY: Enjoys humidity but will tolerate average home environments. Avoid drying heat or cold draughts. Humidity can be increased by pebble trays, grouping with other plants or a humidifier. Ideal terrarium plant.
TEMPERATURE: Enjoys warmth of 16-30°C. Avoid draughts.
FEEDING: Does not require much feeding. Use half strength liquid feed every 3-4 weeks in spring and summer. Feed less in autumn and winter – and only if plants continue to actively grow.
GROWTH: Average growth rate. Stolons can reach up to 50cm in length.
TOXICITY: Safe for pets and people.
PRUNING: Babies can be removed and grown on or left to create a larger plant.
