Fittonia verschaffeltii 'Ruby lime
Fittonia verschaffeltii 'Ruby Lime' is a captivating variant of Fittonia, often referred to as a nervous plant due to its strongly veined foliage. This variety features deep green leaves accented with vibrant veins in shades of ruby red and lime, creating a striking visual contrast that adds color and texture to any interior space.
Origin: Like all Fittonias, 'Ruby Lime' is native to the tropical rainforests of Peru, where it thrives under the forest canopy, benefiting from moist, low-light conditions.
Growth: Fittonia 'Ruby Lime' is a creeping, ground-covering plant, ideal for terrariums, fairy gardens or as a table plant. It quickly forms a dense carpet of colorful foliage and remains relatively small, making it easy to integrate into a variety of houseplant arrangements.
Flowers: The flowers of Fittonia 'Ruby Lime' are small and often insignificant compared to its spectacular foliage. They appear occasionally and are usually white or cream.
Light: This variety prefers bright indirect light, but can adapt to moderate light levels. Too much light can cause leaf burn, while too little light can dull the vibrant colors of its veins.
Watering: Fittonia 'Ruby Lime' requires regular watering to keep the substrate evenly moist but not soggy. Good aeration and drainage are essential to avoid root rot.
Substrate: A well-draining potting mix is essential. Use a substrate rich in organic matter, such as a tropical plant mix, amended with perlite to promote moisture retention while allowing adequate drainage.
Toxicity: Like other members of the Fittonia genus, 'Ruby Lime' is considered non-toxic to humans and pets, making it a safe option for home and office environments.
Fittonia verschaffeltii 'Ruby Lime' is a wonderful option for adding brightness and originality to spaces that don't get much natural light. Its compact size and relatively simple maintenance make it a popular choice for plant lovers looking for lively, colorful decorative elements for their interiors.
