What is the sunlight requirement for Sticky Leaved Heath
Sticky Leaved Heath thrives in bright and direct sunlight. To ensure your plant receives enough light to survive, place it less than one foot from a window.

Alternatively, if you live in a region with relatively milder temperatures and less intense sunlight, then you may be able to place the plant closer to the window for increased exposure. Ultimately, the current weather in your area should be taken into consideration when determining the best placement for your Sticky Leaved Heath.
