Here’s a detailed care guide for Labisia coral black 🌿 — a stunning Labisia variety prized for its velvety black leaves with pink–coral veins and elegant compact growth. It’s a true jewel-plant perfect for terrariums and high-humidity indoor setups.

Here’s a detailed care guide for Labisia coral black :
🌤️ Light
-
Prefers bright, indirect light or filtered shade.
-
Avoid direct sunlight — it can bleach or burn the dark foliage.
-
Thrives beautifully under LED grow lights for 12–14 hours/day.
💡 Too little light causes dull, leggy growth; too much fades the leaf contrast.
🌡️ Temperature
-
Ideal range: 22–30°C.
-
Keep away from cold air or temperatures below 18°C.
-
Labisia dislikes sudden temperature changes — maintain a stable, warm environment.
🌡️ Mimic tropical forest floor conditions — warm and still.
💧 Watering
-
Needs consistently moist but well-draining soil.
-
Water when the top 1–2 cm feels slightly dry.
-
Avoid overwatering — roots are fine and rot easily.
-
Use rainwater, distilled, or filtered water to avoid mineral buildup on leaves.
🚫 Never let the soil dry out completely or stay soggy.
💨 Humidity
-
Requires very high humidity (75–90%).
-
Perfect for closed terrariums or glass cabinets.
-
If grown outside, mist regularly or use a humidifier.
🌫️ Low humidity causes crisped leaf edges and loss of velvety texture.
🌱 Soil
-
Needs a light, airy, moisture-retentive, and humus-rich substrate.
Recommended mix:-
40% sphagnum moss or coco peat
-
30% perlite or pumice
-
20% leaf mold or fine compost
-
10% fine orchid bark or coco chips
-
💧 Good aeration keeps roots healthy and prevents fungal buildup.
🍽️ Fertilizer
-
Feed lightly once a month during the growing season (spring–autumn).
-
Use a diluted (¼–½ strength) balanced liquid or orchid fertilizer.
-
Avoid heavy feeding — excess nutrients can burn roots and dull leaf color.
🌿 Gentle, consistent feeding supports steady foliage growth.
🪴 Repotting
-
Repot every 1–2 years or when roots fill the pot.
-
Handle gently — stems and roots are delicate.
-
Always use fresh, sterilized soil mix to prevent fungal problems.
🌸 Propagation
-
Propagate through stem cuttings or division:
-
Take a cutting with a node and 1–2 leaves.
-
Root in moist sphagnum moss under high humidity and warmth.
-
Transfer to soil mix after roots develop.
-
🪴 Division is best done during repotting to reduce stress.
