How to care for a Wall Cutting
Watering with Wall Cuttings
Wall cuttings need regular watering, but not too much. Water them a little about once a week, always checking first to see if the soil is almost dry. Using high-quality potting soil for aroids prevents your cuttings from sitting in overly wet soil. During warm spells, you can increase the frequency slightly, but make sure no water remains in the coaster. This keeps the roots healthy and prevents root rot, as described in our blog post about root rot in houseplants .
Light requirements of wall cuttings
Wall cuttings prefer a bright spot, but they're best kept out of direct sunlight. Too much bright sun can burn the young leaves, while too little light can actually stunt growth. A spot near a window with filtered light is ideal. If you notice the cuttings leaning toward the light source, you can gently rotate them regularly. This way, all the side branches get enough light and grow evenly.
Common problems
Yellow leaves
Yellow leaves on wall cuttings are often a sign of water stress, either too much or too little water. Check the moisture level of the potting soil before watering. Soil that is too wet can lead to limescale and root rot, while soil that is too dry can dehydrate the plant. Adjust your watering routine and, if necessary, use an Elho 1.5L watering can for more control.
Plant is dripping
If your cuttings are dripping, this could indicate overwatering or a sudden change in temperature. Water then remains trapped in the plant cells and escapes through the stomata. Reduce watering and, if possible, place your wall cuttings in a slightly cooler location. Also, ensure good air circulation around your cuttings.
Plagues
Wall cuttings can be susceptible to spider mites and mealybugs, especially in dry households. Check the undersides of the leaves regularly and wipe away any pests with a damp cloth. For persistent pests, treating them with our sticky traps against fungus gnats or a natural spray is a good solution. Combine this with increased humidity.
Carrots emerge from the bottom of the pot
If roots are growing out of the drainage holes, it means your cutting is too cramped. Repot your wall cuttings in a slightly larger pot, such as a basic white gloss pot , and use fresh, airy potting soil. Make sure the new pot has sufficient holes for extra drainage.
Brown edges on the leaf margins
Brown edges often result from low humidity or excessive direct sunlight. Increase the humidity by using a plant mister or placing a bowl of water nearby. Avoid bright midday sun and choose a bright spot with indirect light.
