Hi All,
I recently purchased a earth star and my question is this.
Ok, I have read that they need high bright light but not direct sunshine. So I was wondering if I could put her on my south facing window sill ( along with my african violets)? Since they require the same type of light I thought my earth star would fit right in.
And yes in the fall and springtime, my violets just go crazy with blooms when set in the south window.
Thank you all for your help in this.

Cryptanthus bivittatus (I think)

Wow that's a cool looking plant. It's shown as a succulent. I have my succulents in my east facing window and they do well there. I don't have a south facing window so I don't know the answer to that. I'm definitely going to be looking for one of those where I figure out where I can stash some more house plants lol. I'm kind of full up at the moment.
