Description

nerve plant hanging Nerve PlantNerve Plants are some of the most eye catching plants we stock, with their bright variegations drawing comparisons to spiderwebs, riverbeds, nets and nerves. They like consistent levels of water and humidity and can thrive as terrarium plants as well as in their own pots. Each pot contains a small group of Fittonia plants which grow together to form a bushy mound of bright foliage with its nervous system of red, pink or white tracing. Scientific Name

Nerve Plants are some of the most eye-catching plants we stock, with their bright variegations drawing comparisons to spiderwebs, riverbeds, nets and nerves. They like consistent levels of water and humidity and can thrive as terrarium plants as well as in their own pots. Each pot contains a small group of Fittonia plants which grow together to form a bushy mound of bright foliage with its nervous system of red, pink or white tracing.

Scientific Name
Fittonia (Fittons' plant)

Once classified as Gymnostachyum argyroneurum/ verschaffeltii, these plants were reclassified under the genus Fittonia as the species argyroneurum for those with white veins, and verschaffeltii for those with red or pink veins. They were then reclassified as the same species, Fittonia albivenis, after research published in a botanical journal in 1979, with two cultivar groups: Argyroneurum, with white veins, and Verschaffeltii, with pink or red veins.

Fitton in the name of this plant is in honour of Elizabeth and Sarah Mary Fitton, authors of the 19th century book 'Conservations on Botany'.

Common Name
White Nerve Plant, Mosaic Plant, Silver Fittonia, Silver Nerve, Silver Threads, Silver-net Plant, Snakeskin Plant, Nerve Plant

Origin
Native to tropical rainforests in South America, especially Columbia and Peru.

Descriptio


Light

Bright, indirect light works best; if you notice yellowing lower leaves on your Fittonia, it could probably do with a little more light.

Water
Water when the soil starts to dry out to keep it evenly moist. Be careful not to leave your Nerve Plant with soggy roots in a darker spot or in winter as this can cause issues. If they get a little too dry, nerve plants will wilt dramatically; if you keep an eye out for this and water as soon as you notice it, they should perk right back up!

Humidity
Fittonia will thrive with higher humidity, so consider misting or adding a pebble tray to help them stay hydrated. Misting occasionally will also help stop the leaves from getting dusty!

Soil
Use a well-draining but moisture-retentive soil, perhaps with added perlite or coir. A mix designed for Calatheas or Marantas works well here. Repot every few years as your nerve plants grow; they will grow faster in wide, shallow pots as they're used to creeping along the ground.

Food
Feed every three waters in the growing season, reduce to every four in autumn and winter. To protect the roots, water before fertilising!

Temperature
Ideal temperature is 18-24°C; make sure it does not get colder than 15°C in winter.

Pet-safe
Yes, but too much nibbling won't be good for pets, small humans or the plant!

Sprouts Top Tips
Keep an eye on your Fittonia's leaves for signs of over- or under-watering. Either way they will wilt; you can tell which issue you are having by checking the soil. If it is wet to the touch or when you squeeze the top slightly, it has been overwatered and needs to dry out; if the pot feels light and the soil bone dry it will need a good water.

Pretty; sturdy; perfect size
Style: Contempo, Style: Contempo
Nice, sturdy little sponge and brush holder for the side of the sink. I was afraid my sink would me too small and spent lots of time trying to find a holder for the rim/countertop area. This one is not too big but fits my dobie and brillo perfectly. My sink is a little too short for a full fledged brush so when I tried to put in the brush I use sometimes it sticks up too much. That's really not the products fault so I won't subtract the score because of it. Also, I decided to put the holder flush against the side closest to me, instead of the side or the back of the sink. If I had chosen that location, the brush sticking out might not be an issue.

Yes the suction works on stainless steel!!
Style: Contempo
I've been through many rag holders before including a magnetic one, which broke. But the suction on this sucker (pun intended) is top notch! It doesn't slide around or come off or slide to the bottom of the sink. It just stays put which is so unique for anything with suction cups. The only reason i am giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is that it is quite small. I wish it were a few inches longer so i could easily fit two rags or sponges in the holder. But i have to jam them in and its not pretty. So for the price, i think it should have been bigger. Still a good product because of the functionality of the suction cups.

Absolutely Perfect
Style: Contempo
This is honestly one of my favorite kitchen purchases (which sounds silly) but it's AWESOME. There's a hole for my dish brush, which is so convenient and keeps it from draining anywhere else AND it has a nice ledge for my sponge. The suction was a little iffy at first, but once it really hunkered down, I've had it for a month and it hasn't fallen since the first day. I LOVE THIS

Great product once put on correctly.
Style: Contempo
When I first received it and placed it on, it continued to fall so I almost returned it. However, I found a method online that worked and it has not fallen since even after all the water and soap getting near it. I’ve placed it on a stainless steel sink so not sure if the method works on other surfaces. Clean the area with soap and water and then make sure there’s no soap residue. Make the water temperature hot and “heat up” both the steel surface and the suction. While it’s still wet, firmly place the suction and make sure it doesn’t move. That should do the trick!

Great item to make life more pleasant!
Style: Contempo
A tiny item that makes my life more lovely. No more yucky scrubber residue all over the counter edge, or soap leaking all over from a faulty handle. A sponge can be at hand and I can hang my cloth somewhere besides the top of the faucet. The suction cups stuck well now at first, and I can move it whenever I want. Not to big nor too small. Wire is firm and strong. Will edit if it doesn’t hold up but right now highly recommend! Edit to add: A bit disappointing that the suction cups are not reliable. Even after carefully cleaning the side of my deep sink with vinegar and washing the suction cups, they come loose about once a day. Giving them a hard push on seems to help, but not a cure. I revised the rating to average 3 stars. It really isn’t a problem in the sink.
