I got the stormanthe triostar about 2 months ago as a cutting and I believe it's ready to plant. I've never had one of these and want to make sure I plant it right so she survives. Please any help would be greatly appreciated

    Never seen it. I would just say pot it in the appropriate soil and you'll be find!! I've proped a few times and the root have never looked like that and they love life.

    Roots look similar to maranta and I’ve had success planting when they are at the same stage. Just make sure to keep soil moist/keep from drying out to help it transition from water to soil. She’s very pretty!

    I have one also. It needs similar care to calatheas—high humidity, distilled water, don’t let the soil dry out, indirect light. I amended the soil with orchid bark and perlite, and a little charcoal.

      Great thanks. I have everything put the charcoal. I will get some today. Will rain water work?

      If you don’t have, don’t worry about it. I usually add it to all my calatheas because they are so damn picky.

      Rain water will be great. They do best with pure water-RO or distilled, or rain water. They don’t like many of the minerals, and some believe the chlorine and fluoride. Very sensitive to lime, as are some dracaenas too. Looks like a beautiful plant. In pic, calathea on right, Treostar on left.
