# I've had this Norfolk Pine for about 6 years and it has grown but not…

_Posted by Sean on 2024-01-06_

I've had this Norfolk Pine for about 6 years and it has grown but not as much as I've read it should. It's about 2 feet from a south facing window and gets mostly bright indirect light and some grow light during the winter. I mist it a couple times a week. It seems healthy and happy but I'm wondering if anyone has any tips on how I could increase its growth rate? Thanks!

MORE light! This plant actually comes from a tropical environment, so it likes bright light and lots of humidity! Move it in the window if you can but the addition of the grow light is always good too. Humidifier would be a better solution rather than misting

Don’t forget fertilizer too!
