Looking after your Lucky plant
Although these striking ‘Lucky Leaves’ plants (Centella asiatica 'Lucky Leaves') come from hotter climates, they make a surprisingly easy-going house plant in the UK.
Best in a bright spot near a window or skylight but keep it out of very bright direct sunlight. A bathroom or kitchen would be ideal as these plants come from swamps in Asia and are used to humid conditions.
In the spring and summer when the plant is growing it will need to be watered fairly regularly and you should aim to keep the soil damp to the touch at all time. To encourage your plant to grow you might like to feed it every month with ordinary houseplant food.
As your lucky leaves plant grows it can be repotted in a larger pot. Choose a good quality container compost and just repot one pot size at a time. These plants are quite slow growers, but they will stay evergreen all year round.
