The Farfugium japonicum 'Firefly' is a unique and eye-catching foliage plant, known for its glossy, round leaves splashed with bright yellow spots. Native to Japan and parts of East Asia, this plant thrives in moist, shaded environments along forest floors and stream banks. In home gardens and indoor spaces, it’s prized for its ornamental leaves and compact growth habit.
For indoor care, Farfugium 'Firefly' prefers bright, indirect light or partial shade. A north or east-facing window works well, or place it slightly away from a brighter window to avoid direct sun, which can scorch its leaves. It does not tolerate intense heat or dry air well, so keeping it in a cooler spot with stable humidity is ideal.
Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, keeping the soil lightly moist but never soggy. Use a rich, well-draining potting mix, and ensure your pot has good drainage. This plant enjoys higher humidity, so consider misting it or placing it near a humidifier. Fertilize monthly during spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertilizer, and reduce feeding in the fall and winter when growth slows.

I ordered a Monstera Thai constellation and it's beautiful! I have to admit I was a little nervous about the shipping but the plant was all bundled up and packaged beautifully. The monstera was in great condition and much larger than I thought it was going to be. I will be purchasing from you guys again!

My plant subscription is the highlight of my month! I am always shocked on how beautiful the plants Mel picked out for me are and that they are so well packaged. Excited to see new plant babies will arrive next month!

Look forward to getting the shipping notification in my email! Box with my plants always comes packaged well and with beautiful selection of plants! I hope this subscription option never ends!

Always amazing when ordering from Mel.

Amazing and healthy plant, arrived in perfect condtiiton. A+++

i think all mystery boxes should come with name cards and care sheets. but overall quality was impeccable

I purchased a Eucalyptus. The plant took longer than expected. No fault of the seller, I live in a rural area and out USPS isn’t the best. The plant arrived alive and unstressed. Very beautifully packaged. Will definitely purchase again.

Received it quickly, packaging was excellent it not only protected the plant it was easy to unwrap. My Cuprea is beautiful and exactly as advertised. Mel, the owner of the shop, is very knowledgeable and extremely helpful in explaining the appropriate care. I absolutely will be purchasing from her again.

Such a beautiful plant. I was able to see it on the live abd when I got it it looked as beautiful as it did then. This plant amongst many that I have bought from her, really stand out in my collection. I am really pleased. Thankyou again!
