Orthosiphon aristatus aka Cat's Whiskers

With a bit of knowledge and dedication, you can successfully care for Cat's Whiskers, making it a rewarding choice for those seeking a moderate challenge.

Cat's Whiskers should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

To ensure optimal growth, the Cat's Whiskers 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.

During the wintertime, it is common for Cat's Whiskers plants to go dormant and their growth rate may slow down. Therefore, the amount of waterings should be spaced out more.
