About the plant:
Aspidistra (Czech Asparagus ) from the Asparagaceae family is an extremely hardy and undemanding plant suitable for heavily shaded areas in the interior, and will even be content with artificial light for a long time. For centuries, it has symbolized happiness, tenacity and unpretentiousness and can withstand even worse conditions, which is why it is called " Domestic happiness ". It can grow to a height of around 60 cm, it has stiff, deep green lanceolate leaves up to half a meter long. Red-brown star-shaped flowers, as the Czech name suggests, sprout from the plant's root above the ground.

Aspidistra comes from Taiwan, where it grows as an undergrowth under trees, so a shady place without direct sun is suitable. It grows relatively slowly and it can take several years to grow a larger plant.

Light

The plant likes diffused light without direct sun and tolerates shady places and artificial lighting very well.

Watering

Let the substrate dry a little before watering again. You can stick your finger in the substrate and if it's dry, water - if not, wait a few days. Overwatering will cause rotting of the roots and the plant.

Humidity

An increase in air humidity benefits the plant, so we can dew.

Propagation

It reproduces by separating the bunches. Due to the atypical structure of the roots, we recommend carefully separating the plant from each other. When planting, do not put the roots too deep.

Common problems

Overwatering: Too much water can cause root rot, yellowing and leaf drop. Dry leaves: Dry air and low humidity will cause the leaves to dry out.
