Description

The Cast Iron Plant, commonly known as the Bar Room Plant or Iron Plant, is a remarkably resilient houseplant native to China and Japan. It features elegant, glossy dark green lance-shaped leaves that emerge directly from the soil on long stems, creating a sophisticated clumping formation that adds a timeless, architectural element to any space.

The Cast Iron Plant is exceptionally low-maintenance and virtually indestructible, making it the perfect choice for beginners, busy plant owners, or anyone seeking a foolproof houseplant. It thrives in low to deep shade conditions where other plants fail, and should be watered sparingly only when the soil is dry. It can tolerate extreme neglect, low humidity, temperature fluctuations, and poor air circulation.

In addition to its legendary durability, the Cast Iron Plant also contributes to a healthier indoor environment by helping to purify the air, making it an ideal choice for offices, bathrooms, or any challenging indoor location.

Caring for your Cast Iron Plant

Difficulty Level - Moderate

Light Requirements Size Guide

- Low Light, Indirect Light

Watering Schedule - Every 1-2 weeks

Water the Cast Iron Plant sparingly, allowing the top 2-3 inches of soil to completely dry out between waterings. This drought-tolerant plant typically needs water only every 1-2 weeks during the growing season, and even less frequently in cooler months - sometimes just once a month in winter. The Cast Iron Plant is extremely forgiving and prefers to be slightly underwatered rather than overwatered, as excessive moisture can lead to root rot and yellowing leaves.
