Fittonias are colourful rainforest creepers that love to mix things up. One batch of cuttings can throw white, yellow, pink, green and red, from fine netted veins to broad colour panels. They crawl and root as they travel, take pruning in stride, wilt dramatically when dry and bounce back after a proper soak. Keep light soft, moisture even and the air warm and humid to keep patterns crisp.
Fittonia 'Peaches & Cream' shows soft pastel foliage washed in peach-pink tones, marked by green venation and a fine green edge to each leaf. The colours are lighter and more diffuse than in most cultivars, with a gentle transition between cream, pink, and green across the foliage.
Care Tips:
Light: Grows well in moderate to bright filtered light.
Water: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.
Humidity: Requires high humidity for best leaf colour and health.
Temperature: Maintain warmth between 18-24°C, avoiding cold air exposure.
Fertiliser: Apply a diluted balanced fertiliser every 3-4 weeks in active growth.
Repotting: Refresh the potting mix when growth slows or roots crowd the container.
