The Nerve Plant is commonly associated with the species Fittonia albivenis. Fittonia is a genus of tropical plants native to South America, and among its species, Fittonia albivenis is particularly popular for its vibrant foliage and distinctive veining, resembling nerves.

Common Names: Besides Nerve Plant, Fittonia albivenis is also known by other common names, including Mosaic Plant and Painted Net Leaf.

Indoor Plant: The Nerve Plant is often chosen as a houseplant for its attractive appearance and relatively easy care.

Care Tips:

Light: Nerve Plants prefer bright, indirect light. While they can tolerate lower light levels, they may lose some of their vibrancy.

Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. These plants prefer slightly higher humidity levels, so misting the leaves or placing the pot on a tray with water can be beneficial.

Soil: Provide well-draining, lightweight soil with a good mix of peat moss and perlite.

Temperature: Nerve Plants thrive in warm temperatures and should be protected from drafts and sudden temperature drops.
