Care Tips

Light

• Grow earth stars in a bright spot
• These small indoor plants can take some direct sun on their leaves, so they’re perfect for dressing up an otherwise bland window sill
• If your earth stars seem pale, move them to a brighter spot

 

Water

• Water Earth Stars so the soil just dries before watering again
• keep the soil moist, but not soggy
• However they thrive in moist soil. Likewise, if you forget to water your earth stars now and again, they don’t mind

 

Soil

• Keep the soil evenly moist
• To create the perfect soil conditions for the earth star, combine regular potting soil with an equal amount of leaf mold or peat moss

 

Temperature

• It enjoys temperatures ranging from 20-30°C
• When grown indoors, normal room temperature is fine

 

Repotting 

• Transplanting is rarely needed, as this plant doesn’t grow very fast and may only last a few years. The roots are also delicate and don’t always survive repotting

 

Propagation

• Keep collecting the offsets 
• Instead of dropping the offsets in the soil around the foliage and plant growth, the offsets are found between the leaves
• The offsets should be left in place until you plan to propagate the plant
• The offsets can be removed carefully and placed in the same type of soil recommended for the mother plant
• After placing the offsets in their own pots, cover with plastic and add ventilation holes. Set the pots in a bright spot
• Within two to three months, the plants should take root

 

Pests and Disease

• Not prone to any major disease 
• Though constant moisture can cause rot and fungal growth 
• Trim off the affected area as soon as its detected
