Growing and care instructions

Light: Provide bright, filtered light or partial shade. Protect the foliage from harsh conditions and strong winds.

Watering: Water thoroughly after transplanting. Keep the growing medium consistently moist during active growth without allowing the roots to sit in standing water.

Soil: Use fertile, well-draining soil or a quality container mix suitable for tropical foliage plants.

Container: Choose a container with drainage holes and enough room for future root growth. A pot is not included with this listing.

Temperature: Xanthosoma is a tropical plant that needs protection from frost and freezing temperatures. In colder climates, grow it in a container that can be moved to a warm, protected location.

Maintenance: Remove severely damaged leaves as needed and provide suitable nutrition during active growth.

Shipping and transplanting

You will receive one live rooted Xanthosoma Mickey Mouse plant, approximately 4–6 inches tall, with soil surrounding its roots. It ships without a pot.

When the plant arrives, unpack it carefully and try to keep the soil around the roots intact. Transplant into suitable growing medium, water thoroughly, and allow excess water to drain. Temporary leaf drooping or other mild shipping stress may occur as the plant adjusts.

Important notes

This is a young starter plant, not a mature specimen. Height, leaf count, leaf shape, and appearance can vary naturally. Photos of larger plants should be treated as examples of potential development, not a guarantee of the plant you will receive.

Safety: Xanthosoma contains calcium oxalate crystals that can irritate the mouth and digestive tract if chewed or ingested. Keep the plant away from children and pets that may chew foliage, and wash your hands after handling damaged plant tissue.

Enjoy growing this distinctive tropical foliage plant in a suitable warm, sheltered environment.
