This plant needs to live in a room with at least some natural light. Place it on a table or countertop with windows nearby.

This plant is a very thirsty one, check on it 2-3 times per week and add water every time the top of the soil feels dry to the touch.

Quick Tips

Like a peace lily, Geogenanthus wilts quickly when it gets dry. But don’t worry—it also perks right back up after it gets the moisture it needs.

Plant Bio

Geogenanthus ciliatus

Hike the jungles of the Amazon rainforest and you might find this unique tropical plant. Though it looks exotic, it’s relatively easy to care for inside – just treat it like a peace lily. If it’s really happy, it may produce small, purplish blooms—they’re small and easy to miss, though. The big draw of this houseplant is its shiny, black-purple foliage. Pair it with Silver Dragon Alocasia or Begonia maculata for a stunning, curated combination. Or go goth and enjoy it next to Raven® ZZ!
