Gongora — 8 species

Most Gongora are pet-safe. Of the 8 Gongora species we cover, 6 are non-toxic on the ASPCA list and 2 carry a toxic or mildly-toxic rating. Even so, confirm the individual species before trusting it around pets.

Most Gongora do best in bright indirect light. If yours stretches toward the window or loses its variegation it wants more light; scorched or bleached leaves mean it is getting too much direct sun.

Gongora are moderate to grow: the main requirement is a genuinely bright spot out of harsh midday sun. Get the light right and the rest of their care follows.

Growli's care library covers 8 Gongora species and varieties — browse them all above. They share a similar light, water and soil pattern, so once you learn one Gongora, the rest follow closely.
