CARE GUIDE

How to keep Chlorophytum Laxum.

Water

The wheat plant thrives in subtropical climates, preferring soil that remains evenly moist and benefits from being watered weekly. Although it can tolerate lower indoor humidity, placing it in bathrooms or kitchens can create optimal conditions that mimic its natural environment.

Pruning

Immediately prune yellow and withered leaves from the wheat plant to prevent them from consuming nutrients and to encourage new leaf growth.
