What is the moisture meter and how does it work?
All large and extra large plant sets will include a sleek, innovative moisture meter that will tell you when it’s time to water.
This moisture meter does not require batteries and uses a simple color scale: blue = no need to water, white = time to water. To use, gently insert as deep as possible into your plant’s soil, taking care not to damage any roots. Wait 20-30 minutes to read. If the window is completely white, water your plant as instructed on your care card. If the window is blue, hold off on watering until it turns completely white. Wait a couple of days before watering, the moisture meter should not be constantly bright blue.
After 9 months it will be time to replace the moister meter stick.
Please note that Léon & George does not take responsibility for damage caused by incorrect or forceful use of the moisture meter.
Will the plant I receive be exactly like the one in the photo on your site?
Of course, no two plants look the same. Although we do our best to offer you a plant that looks as much as possible as the photos, there will always be variations, which is what makes each plant unique!
What is the 30-day plant guarantee all about?
We want to ensure that everyone has a successful experience with their plants. Our plants are all easy to care for and come with our care instructions to guide you in their care. Even so, if your plant dies within the first 30 days of receipt, we will replace it!

Location & Brightness
Bright indirect light; will not tolerate low light. · View Light Guide
Watering
Approximately 0.5 to 1 liter of water once a week in spring and summer, 0.5 every 10 days to 2 weeks in winter.
Care tips
For watering, use water at room temperature and with the chlorine evaporated. Keep the soil just moist to the touch as needed. Note that despite this plant's preference for humidity, it is relatively tolerant to drought. Remove the decorative moss beforehand to avoid getting it wet. Water in 2 times spaced of about 10 minutes so that the soil absorbs the water well. Spray the foliage of your plant regularly to increase the humidity level. Clean the foliage once a month with a soft cloth and diluted black soap. Rotate the pot a quarter circle at this time to promote smooth growth. Apply suitable fertilizer once a month from March to September.
