General Maintenance: This plant is native to Ecuador and Peru, where it grows on the rainforest ground. You can grow this annual in a pot or plant it in the outdoor garden, where it makes an attractive ground cover.

Temperature: In terms of temperature, you have to keep it at 50 to 75 degrees Fahrenheit (10 to 23 degrees Celsius).
Light: This adaptable plant will thrive in low to medium indirect sunlight.
Watering: This attractive species has truly exceptional foliage. But you need to put in some effort to maintain the beauty of this plant, and watering is one of the most important features. This plant comes from a mesic habitat; therefore, it needs a regular water supply. Check the soil every few days to make sure it's moist. Do not let it dry out completely as it prefers to stay on a wetter side. As an indoor plant, will require water more often, so check the soil to monitor soil dryness.
