Light:

Full sun, partial sun or shade (southern, eastern or western or northern exposure).

Temperature:

As a potted plant, maintain indoor temperatures above 50 degrees.  During the winter, however, temperatures above 60 degrees are preferred to maintain active growth.

Humidity:

Preferably 50% or higher; however they will tolerate low levels for short periods with no harm.

Watering:

Bring soil to a state of visual dryness between watering and then thoroughly saturate the potting mix.

Fertilizer:

Go easy on the fertilizer: ½ tsp./gallon every two weeks.  Under lower light or cool temperatures reduce the frequency of fertilizer applications.

Pruning:

No pruning is necessary as they are short stubby growers.

Insects and Disease:

For the most part is not highly susceptible to insects.  However, they will attract scale and mealy bugs, if infected plants are nearby.

Comments:

Tetranemas are great plants for any situation that has limited space.  They do best under partial sun conditions with temperatures above 60 degrees.  They are small enough growers to be used in terrariums.  As long as the light level is high enough they never stop flowering.  Extremely dry atmospheres and high levels of fertilizer are hard on them.
