The mature leaf pictured is for reference only. Corm size, shape, exterior color, root development, and growth stage naturally vary.
How to Sprout
Place the corm growth-point-up in lightly moist sphagnum moss, perlite, Fluval Stratum, or another airy aroid propagation medium. Keep warm and humid with bright indirect light and gentle airflow while avoiding soggy conditions.
Care After Sprouting
After healthy roots and foliage develop, transition gradually into a chunky, well-draining aroid mix. Maintain warmth, elevated humidity, bright indirect light, and consistent but not saturated moisture.
