Schismatoglottis is a tropical perennial favored for its ornamental foliage. In general, schismatoglottis requires medium to bright indirect light and consistently moist soil, without being waterlogged. It thrives in warm, humid environments and prefers a well-draining, peat-based mix. Common challenges include root rot from overwatering, pests like spider mites, and sensitivity to cold drafts. Seasonally, schismatoglottis may demand increased humidity in winter and less water in cooler months. Spring and summer growth spurts necessitate more frequent watering and vigilance for pests.
