Dischidia ovata, commonly known as String of Watermelons, in a 8cm pot. Well-established root system with healthy trailing vines, attractive watermelon-patterned foliage and fresh new growth, showing it’s actively growing and ready to continue trailing in its new home. An unusual epiphytic houseplant that’s easy to care for and perfect for hanging planters, shelves or terrariums.
PLANT CARE:
WATER: Allow the potting mix to partially dry between watering. Dischidias prefer to dry slightly between waterings and should never be left sitting in wet compost.
LIGHT: Thrives in bright indirect light. Some gentle morning or evening sun can encourage stronger growth, but avoid prolonged harsh afternoon sun.
HUMIDITY/TEMPERATURE: Enjoys average to higher household humidity and prefers warm indoor temperatures.
MAINTENANCE: Low maintenance. Can be left to trail naturally or lightly pruned to encourage bushier growth. Benefits from a free-draining, airy potting mix.
