Product Details
Fittonia albivenis
One look at this petite pink plant, and you’ll be able to surmise why ‘Top Stories’ is stealing all the headlines! ‘Top Stories’ is one of the most unusual fittonias, featuring foliage that is more pretty in pale pink than anything. Mostly pink leaves are edged in green serrations that give the leaves delicate ruffled edges.
Height/Habit: 4-8" Spreading
Light Requirement: High, Medium or Low
Low - No direct sun, not near a window. Medium - Medium bright indirect light in the AM or PM, typically from an east or west window. High - Bright direct or indirect light for much of the day, typically from a south window.

Soil Requirements: use an all-purpose potting mix, with orchid bark and perlite added to ensure good drainage.
Tips and Tricks:
- Nerve Plants do require more care than other houseplants, as they require consistent levels of light, temperature, and humidity to keep them thriving. Their leaves will be a good indicator of what they may need:
- Drooping, wilting leaves + dry soil = more water needed.
- Yellowing leaves + soggy soil = less water needed or more drainage needed.
- Leaves dropping = could be an indication that they are in a drafty or cold spot.
- Drying, browning leaves & tips = could be an indication that they are receiving too much direct sunlight or not enough humidity.
- Make great terrarium plants!!
