Here’s a complete care guide for Ardisia mamillata:

🌤️ Light

  • Prefers bright, indirect sunlight.

  • Can tolerate partial shade — ideal for indoor or shaded outdoor settings.

  • Avoid harsh, direct sunlight, which can burn the leaves.

🌡️ Temperature

  • Thrives in warm tropical climates, ideally between 20–32°C.

  • Protect from temperatures below 15°C — cold can cause leaf drop or stunted growth.

  • Keep away from cold drafts or air-conditioning vents.

💧 Watering

  • Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy.

  • Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil feels dry.

  • Avoid waterlogging — roots are sensitive to rot.

  • During winter, reduce watering frequency slightly.

💨 Humidity

  • Enjoys moderate to high humidity (60–80%).

  • Mist the leaves occasionally or use a humidifier/pebble tray in dry indoor environments.

  • Brown leaf edges indicate low humidity.

🌱 Soil

  • Use a loose, well-draining mix that holds moisture without staying wet.
    Recommended mix:

    • 40% coco peat or peat moss

    • 30% perlite or coarse sand

    • 20% compost or leaf mold

    • 10% fine bark or coco chips

  • pH slightly acidic to neutral (5.5–6.5).

🍽️ Fertilizer

  • Feed every 4–6 weeks during the growing season (spring to early autumn).

  • Use a balanced liquid fertilizer (10:10:10 or 20:20:20) diluted to half strength.

  • Avoid fertilizing in winter when growth slows.

🪴 Repotting

  • Repot every 1–2 years or when roots start to fill the pot.

  • Choose a pot one size larger with drainage holes.

  • Refresh the potting mix each time to keep it airy and nutrient-rich.

🌸 Propagation

  • Commonly propagated by stem cuttings or seed.

  • For cuttings:

    • Take semi-hardwood cuttings in spring or early summer.

    • Root in moist perlite or sphagnum moss under high humidity and indirect light.
