Fittonia – The Nerve Plant

The Fittonia (Nerve Plant) is a striking indoor plant, celebrated for its vibrant, mosaic-patterned leaves veined with shades of white, pink, or red. Compact and low-growing, this tropical beauty brings a pop of color and texture to homes and offices, making it a perfect addition to terrariums, tabletops, and decorative planters.

Native to South America’s rainforests, the Fittonia thrives in bright, indirect light and high humidity, making it ideal for bathrooms, kitchens, or enclosed glass terrariums.

Its vibrant foliage makes it an eye-catching accent plant in modern or traditional décor.

Symbolizing energy, vitality, and connection, the Nerve Plant is not only decorative but also meaningful, often chosen as a thoughtful gift or a refreshing addition to plant collections.
