If you’re looking for a plant that really adds some intricate texture to a tabletop or terrarium, Fittonia Marble Green is a fantastic choice. It’s a dense, mounding little tropical that features deep green foliage highlighted by a sharp, web-like pattern of bright white veins, which is why everyone calls it the "Nerve Plant" .
Marble Green Selling Tips
Pet-Friendly: This is a huge selling point—it's non-toxic to cats and dogs, so it's a safe bet for any home . Low-Light Specialist: Market this for those "darker" corners or office desks where other plants struggle. It loves bright, indirect light but handles shade like a pro . Terrarium Staple: Because it stays compact and loves humidity, it's the "go-to" plant for glass jars and indoor miniature gardens .
General Growing Tips For Your Rooted Cutting Liner
Temperature is Key: These are true tropicals. Keep them between 70°F and 86°F. If they drop below 70°F, you'll see your crop time stretch out significantly . Humidity: They thrive when it’s sticky—aim for 50-70% humidity for the best growth . Watering: Don't let them dry out completely. Keep the media consistently moist, but avoid leaving them in standing water to protect the sensitive roots . Light: Give them shade or filtered light (500–1,500 fc). If the light is too intense, the plants will stunt and the leaves can burn .
Pinching
Generally, you don't need to pinch these because they have a naturally mounding habit. However, if you see them starting to stretch, a quick snip will encourage them to bulk up .
Spacing
To get a high-quality "retail-ready" look in a 4-inch pot, we recommend planting about 5 liners per container .
Pests
Watch for aphids and fungus gnats. They can also be a target for thrips and spider mites if the air gets too dry .
Disease
The biggest risks are Xanthomonas (bacterial leaf spot) and Botrytis. The best defense is to keep the leaves dry before nightfall—avoid overhead watering late in the day.
Rooted Cuttings
Cuttings vary in size between different plant families. These rooted starter plants will arrive ready to be transplanted in to your final container. If they are to be used in a landscape application, you will need to establish them in a 4 inch pot or an 1801 before planting outside.

Before we take this relationship any further...
It looks like this is the first time you've added anything to your cart.
We just wanted to remind you that we are a wholesale starter plant company that sells to businesses, schools, clubs, and other non-profits. State law dictates that you must be growing for resale to order from us since we are not collecting sales tax.
If we aren't a match, we understand. It's not you, it's us.
We would look awful in orange jumpsuits.
