Care Guide

Grow Homalomena rubescens Marble Variegated sp. Borneo in bright, indirect light to help maintain healthy growth and attractive variegation. Avoid harsh direct sun, which may damage the leaves. Water when the top layer of the potting mix begins to dry, keeping the soil lightly moist but never soggy. This humidity-loving tropical plant performs best in humidity above 60% and warm temperatures between 65–85°F. Use a chunky, well-draining aroid mix with orchid bark, perlite, coco chips, and a small amount of sphagnum moss to support healthy roots.
