🌿 Plant Care Tips

Adelonema crinipes is a rare tropical aroid native to the neotropics of South America, distinguished by its slender, upright stems bearing pointed green leaves with pronounced basal lobes and a vivid yellow midrib. The leaves arise with a glossy sheen and mature to an elongated arrow shape, typically around 20–30 cm in length, creating an elegant, architectural silhouette. 

This plant is well adapted to indoor growing. It maintains a moderate, upright habit of around 30–40 cm tall and thrives under typical household conditions when given attention to light, humidity, and careful watering. 

Native to: South America, primarily tropical regions such as Brazil, Peru, Ecuador and surrounding areas. Leaves are elongated, up to 30 cm long, arrow-shaped with basal lobes and a bright yellow midrib; petioles are slender, red, and spiky—a rare trait among aroids .

Water: Allow the top third of the potting mix to dry between thorough waterings. Reduce watering slightly in winter, watching to avoid soggy soil that can lead to root rot.

Light: Prefers bright, indirect light, such as an east- or west-facing window with sheer coverage. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves .

Humidity: Thrives in moderate to high humidity. Target 60–70 %; using a pebble tray or humidifier is beneficial. 

Temperature: Ideal range is 18–27 °C. Avoid exposure to temperatures below 15 °C or cold drafts; indoor heating is acceptable provided temperatures remain stable .
