Care Guide
💧 Water
☀️ Light Full sun
Skyflower comes from habitats that receive plenty of sunlight, such as the shallow margins of ponds and lakes. It prefers full sun, but can also tolerate partial sun.
🌡️ Temperature 15–37.8°C
Skyflower comes from tropical areas, where the weather is usually warm and humid. As a result, it is adapted to high temperatures and moisture. It does not tolerate abrupt temperature changes and prefers a consistent thermal environment, so avoiding temperature fluctuations indoors is important. It typically cannot stand cold and needs warmer conditions to grow. If the surrounding temperature falls too low, the plant may stop growing or even die.
