Here’s a complete care guide for Homalomena Sp. Dolphin:
🌤️ Light
-
Prefers bright, indirect light.
-
Avoid harsh direct sunlight — it can scorch the leaves.
-
Can tolerate low light, but growth may slow, and leaf color may fade slightly.
🌡️ Temperature
-
Ideal range: 20–30°C.
-
Keep away from cold drafts or air-conditioning vents.
-
Minimum safe temperature: 15°C.
💧 Watering
-
Keep soil evenly moist but never soggy.
-
Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil feels dry.
-
Avoid letting the plant sit in water; good drainage is essential.
-
During winter, reduce watering slightly.
💨 Humidity
-
Loves high humidity (60–80%).
-
Mist occasionally or place near a humidifier or pebble tray.
-
Dry air can cause leaf edges to brown.

🌱 Soil
-
Use a well-draining aroid mix:
-
40% coco peat or peat moss
-
30% perlite
-
20% orchid bark
-
10% compost or coco chips
-
-
Ensure good aeration to prevent root rot.
🍽️ Fertilizer
-
Feed once a month during the growing season (spring to early autumn) with a balanced liquid fertilizer (NPK 20:20:20 or 10:10:10).
-
Stop feeding in winter when growth slows.
🪴 Repotting
-
Repot every 1–2 years or when roots fill the pot.
-
Choose a pot 1–2 inches larger than the current one with proper drainage.

🍃 Propagation
-
Propagate via stem or rhizome division during repotting.
-
Ensure each section has at least one healthy growing point and root system.
