Soil Type

Water: Originating from tropical rainforests, miagos bush thrives in high humidity and requires regular hydration, with weekly watering recommended. It is an evergreen plant favored for indoor growth, benefiting from a humid atmosphere that enhances its lush foliage and vitality.

Fertilize: Miagos bush requires high-nitrogen fertilizers every 2 months for optimal growth, particularly in spring and summer. Use a half-strength water-soluble solution to avoid root burn, and reduce feeding in cooler months. Always wear gloves and avoid over-fertilization to protect miagos bush's roots.

Pruning: Miagos bush has linear leaves and thrives in warm, tropical climates. Prune from early to late winter to maintain shape and promote growth. Remove damaged branches, thin crowded areas, and deadhead to encourage blooms. Use clean tools to prevent disease.

Propagation: Miagos bush is propagated through cuttings using stem sections with leaves. Apply rooting hormone before planting in well-drained potting mix. Mist regularly for humidity and provide indirect light. Keep the medium evenly moist to prevent rot, then acclimate once roots establish.

Repotting: Repot miagos bush every 2-3 years in early spring, using a container 2 inches larger in diameter. Ensure good drainage with high-quality potting mix. After repotting, water thoroughly and place in bright, indirect light for recovery. Provide consistent care for robust growth.
