Dragon’s Fingers, also known as Rhaphidophora Decursiva, is a striking tropical plant that boasts large, deeply lobed leaves which can add a touch of the exotic to any indoor space. This climbing plant is perfect for plant enthusiasts looking to create an indoor jungle vibe.
Light Needs: Dragon’s Fingers thrive in bright, indirect light. They can tolerate lower light conditions but will grow more slowly. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can cause leaf burn.
Water Needs: Keep the soil of your Dragon’s Fingers consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry, allowing excess water to drain out to prevent root rot. Reduce watering frequency in the winter months when the plant's growth slows down.
Humidity Needs: Dragon’s Fingers prefer a humid environment, with ideal humidity levels around 60-70%. Increase humidity by misting the leaves regularly, placing the plant near a humidifier, or setting the pot on a tray of water with pebbles to create a humid microclimate.
