Buy Fittonia Jungle Flame | Easy Care Houseplant

Fittonia Jungle Flame

Fittonia Jungle Flame is a colourful tropical foliage plant known for its richly veined leaves and compact growth habit. This eye-catching indoor plant works well on desks, shelves, terrariums, or bright bathroom spaces with added humidity.

Its foliage features deep green tones highlighted with warm red to pink veining, creating strong contrast and texture. Fittonias are often chosen for their manageable size and decorative foliage, especially in indoor collections where softer light conditions suit them well. Jungle Flame adds colour without needing a large growing space, making it suitable for apartments and smaller indoor areas.

Want your succulent with a pot?

This plant has been grown in a 100mm nursery pot, so that size is a good guide if you’re picking a pot for home. We usually ship bare root for freshness and to keep costs low, but we’re happy to pot your plant on request!

Care

Light

Prefers bright indirect light indoors. Avoid strong afternoon sun, especially during warmer Australian months, as the leaves can scorch.

Water

Keep the soil lightly moist but not waterlogged. Fittonias tend to appreciate more regular watering than succulents, particularly in dry indoor conditions.

Humidity

Higher humidity helps maintain healthy foliage. Bathrooms, kitchens, or grouped indoor plants can help improve humidity naturally.

Temperature

Best kept in mild indoor temperatures and protected from cold drafts or frost.

Good to know

Fittonias are sometimes called nerve plants due to their detailed leaf veining. They may droop slightly when thirsty but usually recover quickly after watering.

The succulent plant housed in the black pot comes in a 100mm diameter container. While the image provides a representative depiction of what you will receive, but may vary slightly because no two succulents are the same.
