Goodyera tesselata aka Checkered Rattlesnake Plantain

Checkered Rattlesnake Plantain should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

Checkered Rattlesnake Plantain 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.

To ensure optimal growth, the Checkered Rattlesnake Plantain prefers bright indirect 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.

Ploi's records do not contain confirmed information on the toxicity of this particular plant. In the event of accidental ingestion of plant material with questionable toxicity by you, a family member, or a pet, it is always a good idea to consult a healthcare professional.

New growth will sprout from the top of the plant as it grows upwards.
