Pink Polka Dot Plant Care

On its first few days at home, your Polka Dot Plant might shed a leaf or two as it acclimates to its new environment. This is a normal adjustment period and shouldn't cause concern. To help it settle in, avoid moving the plant too frequently, which can cause stress. Instead, find a suitable spot with ideal light conditions and maintain a stable environment.

To maintain its vibrant appearance and promote healthy growth, dust the leaves regularly and rotate the plant by a quarter turn every month. This ensures all sides of the plant receive equal light, preventing it from leaning towards the light source.

Additionally, pruning any leggy or damaged growth will help keep your Polka Dot Plant looking lush and full. Regular care and attention will ensure that your plant continues to thrive and enhance your living space with its colorful and playful foliage.
