Episcia (Flame Violet) – Short Care Guide

Episcia is a tropical plant known for its vibrant foliage and occasional colorful flowers. Here’s a quick care overview:

🪴 Light

• Bright, indirect light is ideal.
• Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.

💧 Water

• Keep the soil evenly moist but not soggy.
• Water when the top inch of soil feels dry.
• Use room-temperature, non-chlorinated water if possible.

💦 Humidity

• Thrives in high humidity (50–70%).
• Mist regularly or use a humidity tray or humidifier.

🌡️ Temperature

• Prefers 65–75°F (18–24°C).
• Avoid drafts and sudden temperature drops.

🌱 Soil & Pot

• Use a well-draining, light potting mix (like African violet soil).
• A shallow pot is fine, as it has shallow roots.

✂️ Maintenance

• Remove dead leaves and spent flowers.
• Propagate easily by runners or stem cuttings.
