Tetranema are relatively low-maintenance plants, requiring basic care that allows them to thrive. In terms of light, tetranema prefer bright, indirect sunlight. For watering, they need a consistent schedule, allowing their soil to dry slightly between sessions. With temperature, tetranema require a warm environment without drastic fluctuations. They grow best in well-draining soil with a balance of moisture retention. Common challenges include a vulnerability to root rot if overwatered and potential infestation by pests such as spider mites and mealybugs. Seasonally, tetranema benefit from reduced watering in winter and protection from excessive heat in summer. Slight fertilization adjustments are necessary to accommodate the active growth phase during spring and summer.
