Product Specifications
The Radermachera plant, commonly known as the China Doll Plant (Radermachera sinica), is a striking and elegant indoor plant renowned for its lush, glossy foliage. Native to China and Taiwan, this plant is admired for its dark green, leathery leaves that are arranged in a feather-like pattern, creating a dense, tropical appearance. Typically growing to a height of 3-6 feet (0.9-1.8 meters) indoors, Radermachera has a bushy, upright growth habit that can add a touch of sophistication to any interior space. It thrives in bright, indirect light but is adaptable to lower light conditions, though its growth may slow and its foliage may become less vibrant in such environments. The plant prefers consistently moist soil, allowing the top inch to dry out between waterings, and enjoys warm temperatures, ideally between 60-75°F (16-24°C). Moderate to high humidity is beneficial, and occasional misting can help maintain moisture levels in dry indoor conditions. With its striking appearance and relatively easy care requirements, the China Doll Plant is a popular choice for adding a touch of tropical elegance to homes and offices.
1. Aesthetic Appeal: The China Doll Plant adds a touch of tropical elegance to indoor spaces with its lush, glossy foliage. It can be used as a centerpiece or in a variety of indoor plant arrangements.
2. Air Purification: Like many houseplants, Radermachera helps improve indoor air quality by filtering out pollutants and releasing oxygen.
1. Light: Radermachera prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions. Direct sunlight should be avoided as it can scorch the leaves.
2. Watering: Water the plant regularly, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Reduce watering in the winter when the plant's growth slows down.
3. Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a standard houseplant mix or a blend of peat, perlite, and sand, to ensure proper drainage and prevent root rot.
4. Temperature: The China Doll Plant thrives in warm temperatures, ideally between 60-75°F (16-24°C). It should be protected from cold drafts and temperatures below 50°F (10°C).
5. Humidity: Radermachera enjoys moderate to high humidity. In dry indoor environments, occasional misting or a humidity tray can help maintain moisture levels.
