Medinilla magnifica v.17 h.40

Caring for Medinilla plants is not difficult once you know what it needs. Medinilla comes from the tropics, so it needs warmth and high humidity. The ideal location is a bright spot that is not exposed to direct sunlight. Since it grows under the canopy of tropical forests, it is best kept in light shade, for example under a larger plant. After the flowering period, give plant regular houseplant or orchid fertilizer. At this point, your plant can be prune back to keep under control and create bushier new growth. Be sure to leave at least one leaf set on each stalk you cut, or that stalk will die back completely.
