CARE GUIDE

How to keep Styphnolobium Affine.

Light

Eve's Necklace requires sufficient daily sunlight to encourage its strong growth. It flourishes in its natural environment under direct sunlight. However, it shows a tolerance for moderate shade. An imbalance in light exposure can be harmful, as too little or too much sunlight might potentially affect its best growth.

Temperature

Eve's Necklace, originally found in forest canopy gaps, prefers a temperate and mild environment. It flourishes most notably in temperatures ranging from 20 to 35 ℃ (68 to 95 °F). In the colder months, minor modifications are required for this plant to sustain ideal growth rates.

Fertilizer

It's essential to fertilize Eve's Necklace at the right time. Start in the early spring and continue on a monthly basis until the start of summer. Fertilizer aids in creating beautiful flowers and supplies energy during periods of dormancy and active growth.
