Care Instructions:

Fortune Cookie Flora thrives in bright, indirect light. A little morning sun is cool, but avoid harsh, direct afternoon rays. Water once the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch—this plant prefers a drink when it’s needed rather than a soggy bottom. And don’t forget to give its leaves a gentle dusting now and then to keep them shining. If you spot any leggy growth, go ahead and pinch it back to encourage bushier growth.

Nestle your Fortune Cookie Flora in a quirky ceramic pot or let it drape gracefully in a hanging planter to show off its whimsical leaves.
