Ardisia sp Malaysia

Ardisia sp., commonly known as Malaysian Barberry or Mistletoe Tree, originates from tropical regions, particularly in Southeast Asia, including Malaysia.

Care tips for Ardisia sp. include:

Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate partial shade. Avoid direct sunlight, which can damage the leaves.

Water: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings.

Humidity: Thrives in higher humidity levels. Mist the leaves or place the pot on a humidity tray to maintain moisture.

Temperature: Enjoys warm temperatures, ideally between 60°F to 75°F (15°C to 24°C).

Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix with organic matter to retain some moisture.

Fertilization: Feed with a balanced, diluted fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).

Regularly check for pests and provide good airflow to prevent fungal diseases.
