Monthly care guide

Guidance to adapt to your plant and conditions, not a fixed watering schedule.

◉ Water 1

Water Arrowhead Plant

Check the top 2–3 cm of soil — water thoroughly until it drains, then empty the saucer. Skip if still moist.

Indoor UAE flats run cool and dry under AC; over-watering rots roots faster than under-watering harms growth.

Weekly check

❧ Feed 1

Feed Arrowhead Plant

Apply a balanced houseplant fertilizer at half strength with a regular watering.

Indoor light is the limit; a half dose matches what the plant can actually use without burn.

Monthly check

☷ Other care 1

Flush soil around Arrowhead Plant

Slow-soak the root zone with 2–3× the normal water volume to leach accumulated salts below the root depth.

UAE tap and groundwater carry dissolved salts; without periodic flushing they build up and burn salt-sensitive roots.
