How to Grow
Raphidophyllum thrives in bright, filtered light indoors near an east or west facing window. Outdoors it does best in partial shade in zones 10-11. Keep soil evenly moist but not soggy.
Care Tips
Water when the top few inches of soil become dry. Mist frequently to boost humidity. Feed monthly during spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertilizer. Keep away from cold drafts.
Uses
Raphidophyllum makes an excellent tabletop or floor plant. Use its lush tropical look to accent living spaces indoors. Outdoors it shines in partly shaded garden beds or planters.
Planting Tips
Space Raphidophyllum plants 3-4 feet apart in partly shaded garden beds. Dig a hole twice the container width, backfill with soil, and water well after planting. Use a quality potting mix for containers.
Maintenance
Remove dead leaves and spent flower stalks to keep your plant looking its best. Wipe leaves regularly with a damp cloth to remove dust. Repot when rootbound in early spring.
