Episcia is a supporter of bright, but diffused sunlight, so the best place for it is not even the eastern and western window sills, but designated places in flowerpots on the walls, where the fleecy leaves of the plant, illuminated by a phytolamp (13 hours/day), will beautifully refract the light into silver and bronze shades.

What kind of pot is needed for Episcia

The maximum pot size for adult plants is about 20 cm in diameter.

A simple way to propagate episcia from stem cuttings is to root them directly in the soil substrate.

They are separated and planted in light soil in a small pot (diameter 7-9 cm) and placed in a greenhouse or covered with a jar.

What does Episcia like

Episcia loves to grow on a sunny windowsill, but without the scorching rays of the sun.

This can be an eastern, western, southern window.

On the other hand, a hanging planter near the window.

Send the epic to a well-deserved rest from mid-November to March.

Water once a week; reduce the duration of lighting (phytolamp at least 11 hours/day).
