How to prune fittonia albivenis 'juanita'

Spring through summer during active growth; remove flowers as they appear year-round. Pinch the shoot tips just above a node every few weeks during the growing season. If stems become leggy or bare at the base, cut them back by one-half to a healthy node — new growth will emerge quickly in warm, humid conditions.

Tip-pinch every 4–6 weeks; cut back leggy stems as needed. Fittonia 'Juanita' is a low creeping tropical that benefits from tip-pinching rather than hard pruning. Pinch stem tips regularly to maintain a bushy, compact habit and prevent legginess. Remove flower spikes promptly to keep foliage lush and colourful. True structural pruning is rarely ever necessary.
