Description

Rose Grape (Medinilla magnifica) 13cm Pot from Javado

Medinilla (Medinilla magnifica) originates from the Philippines and belongs to the Melastomataceae family.
In its tropical homeland, this evergreen shrub grows both epiphytically (on other plants or trees) and terrestrially (on the ground).
The medinilla’s bold flowers have made it a popular houseplant. The plant can reach heights of 2.5 meters in nature, and as a houseplant, medinilla can grow up to 1.5 meters tall – though it will usually remain much more dwarfed.
Keep your Medinilla magnifica plant at a temperature between 19 and 25 °C. In winter this can be a little cooler as the medinilla needs a resting period to create spring flower buds.
Yet, even in winter and during the rest period, the temperature must never fall below 15 °C.
Humidity should be at least 60% all year round and can be increased by spraying the plant or by placing bowls of water near it.

Given its tropical origins, medinilla care can be a little challenging. Most importantly, the right location is crucial for medinilla plants.
If placed in a bright spot with a consistent warm temperature, your medinilla plant is pretty much guaranteed to flower abundantly.
When it comes to medinilla plant care, make sure to provide a good supply of water and nutrients during the flowering period and give the plant a resting period in winter.

Always keep your medinilla’s root ball moist during the growing season.
Ensure good drainage and remove excess water from the saucer or planter about 15 minutes after watering. In the summer, you can also submerge the root ball completely in water from time to time and then drain it well.
Always use room-temperature and lime-free water, even when spraying the leaves. During the dormant winter period, reduce watering: just give your plant enough water to prevent the root ball from drying out.
