Not to be confused with the regular Siltepecana, ‘El Salvador’ has larger more dramatic leaves with large amounts of silver coloring on the leaves.
Light: Bright, indirect light is best.
Water: Allow the top soil to dry out before watering again to prevent root rot.
Soil: Needs excellent drainage.
Temperature: Prefers warm temperatures (65-80°F).
Fertilizer: Feed monthly with balanced fertilizer.
Potting: When roots begin emerging from the bottom of the pot, dying or stunted growth happens, or the soil is drying out extremely quickly and water is draining straight through, it may be time for a repot.
