How to care for Intermediate Lady's Mantle

Water

Intermediate Lady's Mantle should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

Soil

Intermediate Lady's Mantle loves a well-draining soil. Perlite and vermiculite help with drainage, while coco coir adds organic matter, so a good potting soil mix will have all three. You can improve store-bought soil by adding some perlite to it.

Lighting

To ensure optimal growth, the Intermediate Lady's Mantle prefers bright diffused light for 6-8 hours each day. Insufficient light can result in slow growth and leaf drop, so it's important to find a well-lit location for this plant. Place it near a window, within a distance of 1 meter (3 feet), to enhance its potential for thriving.

Toxicity

Fertilizer

The Intermediate Lady's Mantle should be transferred to a new pot once it has increased in size two-fold, or on an annual basis, whichever occurs earlier. Replacing the soil with fresh potting soil containing all the necessary nutrients, is sufficient enough to support the growth of the plant, thus avoiding the need to use fertilizer. It's important to note that plants derive their energy from the sun and not fertilizer.

Region of origin

Intermediate Lady's Mantle’s native range is Europe, including Britain, from Norway to Spain and east to Poland.
