Sunlight:
The Sundaville® Double Red requires ample sunlight to thrive. It's best to place it in a sunny spot where it can receive at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day. If you're growing it indoors, place it near a south-facing window or use a grow light to supplement its light requirements.
Water:
Water the Sundaville® Double Red when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. It's important not to overwater this plant, as it can be sensitive to root rot. When watering, make sure to thoroughly saturate the soil and allow any excess water to drain away.
Humidity:
The Sundaville® Double Red prefers moderate to high humidity levels. If you're growing it indoors, consider using a humidifier or placing a tray of water near the plant to increase the moisture in the air.
Temperature:
This plant thrives in warm temperatures between 15 and 25 degrees Celsius (60-80 °F). Keep it away from drafts, as it can be sensitive to sudden temperature changes.
Soil:
The Sundaville® Double Red prefers well-draining, slightly acidic soil. Add perlite or sand to improve drainage if necessary. A water-soluble fertilizer can be used during the growing months, in spring and summer, to enhance the plant's growth.
Propagation:
The Sundaville® Double Red can be propagated through stem cuttings in the spring or early summer. Take a 10-cm (4-inch) stem cutting from the parent plant, strip the leaves from the lower half, and place it in a container with moist potting soil, placed in a well-lit area. Keep the soil consistently moist but not wet, keep an eye out for any new growth signaling successful rooting.
Common Problems and Pests:
While the Sundaville® Double Red is generally low-maintenance, it can be susceptible to pest infestations. Keep an eye out for spider mites, mealybugs, or whiteflies, and treat accordingly with an insecticide or with neem oil as a natural, organic pest repellent.
If the leaves begin to curl up or look unhealthy, overwatering or underwatering could be the cause. Check the soil and adjust the watering accordingly. With proper care, the Sundaville® Double Red should grow beautifully and thrive.
