We love this Cast Iron plant because it’s so hardy! The Aspidistra plant is named the Cast Iron plant for a good reason! It’s easy to look after and care for and almost indestructible! The Cast Iron Plant, or Aspidistra elatior, is a hardy and attractive evergreen plant that is native to the forest floors of Japan and Taiwan. Despite its tropical origins, this plant is incredibly resilient and can tolerate a wide range of growing conditions, making it a popular choice for indoor and outdoor cultivation.

The Cast Iron Plant grows in moist, shaded areas in the wild, typically under dense tree canopies. It thrives in the loamy, acidic soils found in these areas and can grow in areas with little light, making it well-suited for indoor cultivation. The plant grows in clumps of glossy, dark green, lance-shaped leaves that can grow up to 2 feet long and 4 inches wide. The plant's root system comprises rhizomes that spread horizontally, allowing it to form a dense, bushy habit. In early spring, the plant produces small, insignificant, purple-brown flowers on short stems near the base of the leaves.

The Cast Iron Plant is a great houseplant choice due to its hardiness and low maintenance requirements. It is ideal for beginners or those with busy lifestyles, as it is very forgiving regarding watering and light. 

To care for the Cast Iron Plant, ensure that it is planted in a well-draining potting mix and that the soil is kept evenly moist but not waterlogged. The plant can tolerate low light conditions, making it perfect for homes or offices with minimal natural light. If the plant becomes too large for its container, it can be repotted in the spring. Fertilize the plant with a balanced liquid fertilizer every two weeks during the growing season to keep it healthy.

When styling the Cast Iron Plant with a pot, choose a container slightly larger than the current pot, as this plant prefers to be a little root bound. Terracotta pots are a great choice, allowing for better drainage and airflow. For a more contemporary look, consider a minimalist white or black pot. Consider a woven basket or a wooden pot for a more natural look.

In summary, the Cast Iron Plant is a hardy and low-maintenance plant that is perfect for indoor cultivation. Its attractive foliage and air-purifying qualities make it a popular choice for those looking to add a touch of green to their home or office. With the proper care and styling, this versatile plant can thrive and bring a touch of nature to any space.

Since Victorian times this variegated Aspidistra Elatior has been very popular with its beautiful, paddle-shaped, elegant leaves that have graced many a film set. You can capture this style in your own home and enjoy the sophisticated looks of the Cast Iron Plant in any room.  

It’s a slow grower - which has advantages because you will know that it will fit the space chosen! It’s not a rare plant, but it is hard to find in this large size. However, you can get it here in our houseplant shop!

If you’re buying the Cast Iron plant as a special gift, we’ll enclose a free, handwritten card with your order. Just note your message at the basket stage of the checkout, and we’ll do the rest! No paperwork is included either to spoil the surprise!

Where should I put the Cast Iron Plant?

The Cast Iron plant likes a dry, bright spot and can tolerate some full sun but not all day.

How should I water it?

When you feel the top two inches of soil are dry, this plant can survive being left alone; in fact, it prefers it!

Is it suitable if I have pets?

It’s not toxic to cats and dogs. A pet-safe houseplant.

Do I need to feed it?

You can give a feed once a month in spring and summer. Why not try our vegan, organic plant food?

Super Comfortable and Easy to Sleep On
Color: Memory Pillow, Size: Standard
HIMOON Shredded Memory Foam Pillows are honestly way more comfortable than I expected—they’re soft but still supportive, and I like that I can adjust and fluff them to fit how I sleep. They feel good for both side and back sleeping, and they don’t go flat like some cheaper pillows I’ve tried. After using them for a while, they’ve held up well and still feel cozy every night. Overall, just a really comfortable, no-stress pillow that makes it easy to fall asleep 👍

Good pillows; wear a mask when fluffing and airing out
Color: Memory Pillow, Size: Standard
Searched everywhere for comfortable pillows, finally found this set. Perfect density and firmness, very comfortable. Downside is that they were covered in some type of white powder which dispersed as I was fluffing them up. Fiberglass, maybe? I recommend customers fluff and air them outside before use, and wear a mask. Pillows had an industrial smell, which dissipated after 20 minutes in the fresh air.

They are using different/cheaper shredded foam then they were 1 year ago
Color: Memory Pillow, Size: Standard, Color: Memory Pillow, Size: Standard
The shredded foam used last year was really nice and soft and even firm to a point where your head is supported perfectly while you sleep. now the 2 extra pillows I received this weekend have completely different shredded foam which seems to be cheaper. Also when you unzip the pillow cover and get to the part where you can unzip the other cover where the foam is no longer is there. so they are using cheaper shredded foam and a cheaper cover to where the foam is and you can no longer unzip the second cover to see the foam. but I can easily tell that they are using different and cheaper foam which isn't true memory foam. their new blend is too fluffy and the pillows are floppy and too soft. the old ones i bought 1 year ago are heavy pillows that are true memory foam which your head molds into perfectly and are amazing. these new ones they are making aren't worth it. In one picture you can see the cover with different colored cheap foam and the other picture with the green and white thick premium quality shredded memory foam. The other pictures show how the old ones are thick and firm and moldable for you head and the other 2 are floppy because they use cheaper shredded foam. They need to use the shredded foam they used last year! it was really good! Now they are not true memory foam pillows anymore due to changing from premium shredded foam to cheap shredded foam.
