Planting & Care

1. Planting: Start by selecting a suitable location for your Lobster Claw Plant. Though it thrives indoors, it’s important to place it near a sunny window so that it receives a minimum of 6 hours of sunlight each day. Once you’re ready to plant, use a container that’s one and a half to two times the size of its shipped container, place your plant in its soil, back fill and then water to settle its roots. You can add about 2 inches of mulch around the base of the plant to retain moisture as well. And ensure your container also has drainage holes.

2. Watering: Water your Lobster Claw frequently, around once or twice weekly, so that the soil is moist but well-drained. If you’re not sure when to water your plant, simply check the soil 2 to 3 inches down – if it’s dry, it’s time to water.

3. Fertilizing: Fertilize your Lobster Claw Plant once a month, spring to fall, with an all-purpose fertilizer, such as 10-10-10.

4. Pruning: Cut your Lobster Claw’s flower stems after they bloom to make room for newer flowers. This also promotes a neater, cleaner look.
