Caring Tips:-

2. Pruning: Trim dead or yellowing leaves regularly to maintain the plant’s appearance and encourage new growth. Remove any spent flowers to promote better blooming.

3. Humidity: Create a humid environment for your Alpinia Variegata, mimicking its native tropical habitat. Regular misting or placing a tray of water nearby can help increase humidity levels.

4. Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Allow the top inch of the soil to dry before watering again. During the growing season, water more frequently and reduce watering during the dormant period.

5. Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix that retains some moisture but prevents waterlogging. A mix of potting soil, peat moss, and perlite or sand works well.
