Description
Native to the tropical forests of Central and South America, the Friendship plant bears its name due to the rapid rooting of cuttings that can be established for new plants to give to friends and family. Featuring quilted leaves of apple green with deep bronze veins and ease of care, the Friendship plant makes it a joy to grow indoors. This adorable plant will get about 6 inches high and rarely up to 12 inches. With proper care, this little gem might even favor you with its pale pink flowers.
Being a tropical plant, it needs warm temperatures, moderate to bright light and consistent humidity to thrive but other than that, this plant’s needs are basic. Plant near a window, but away from direct sunlight, which can scorch its leaves. Give your friendship plant
a quarter turn every few days to expose all sides to sunlight. Pinch off growing tips to keep the plant compact. Those cuttings will root easily, so don't toss them out. Share them with friends or pot them up for more plants.
