Fittonia albivenis 'Joly Josan Red'

Fittonia albivenis 'Joly Josan Red' is a compact nerve plant with dark green leaves crossed by strong red to pink-red veins. It grows low from creeping stems, so the colour sits close to the pot surface and becomes more prominent as the plant fills sideways.

This Fittonia follows the compact Josan-line growth pattern: thin patterned leaves, shallow roots and short stems that thicken well with trimming. The leaf surface responds quickly to changes in moisture, so steady conditions are more important than heavy feeding or frequent repotting.

Key traits of 'Joly Josan Red'

  • Compact red-veined Fittonia with dark green leaves and a low spreading habit.
  • Rooting stems help the plant thicken across the substrate surface.
  • Small flower spikes can appear, while the red-veined leaves remain the visible feature in small pots.
  • Grows well in warm, humid conditions with bright filtered light.

Low growth and dense red veining

'Joly Josan Red' stays most defined when the stems remain short and leafy. The red veins run across each small leaf, creating a dense patterned surface as new shoots overlap. Pinching longer stems encourages branching and helps the plant keep a fuller shape.

Like other Fittonia, this cultivar comes from a species adapted to humid tropical forest floors. It has shallow, fine roots and soft leaves, so it responds quickly to changes in moisture. A dry pot causes rapid wilting, while a sealed, wet mix can damage roots and yellow the lower leaves.

Care for 'Joly Josan Red'

  • Water: Keep the substrate evenly lightly moist. Water before the whole pot dries, then drain off any excess.
  • Humidity: Raised humidity keeps the leaves flatter and reduces dry margins. Terrariums and vitrines suit this cultivar when ventilation prevents stagnant wet foliage.
  • Light: Provide bright indirect light. Keep the leaves out of direct sun, which can scorch the patterned surface.
  • Substrate: Use a fine, breathable mix that holds moisture while allowing air through the root zone. Perlite, fine bark or mineral granules help prevent compaction.
  • Temperature: Maintain steady warmth above 17°C and avoid cold glass, draughts and sudden temperature drops.
  • Maintenance: Trim long shoots and tuck healthy cuttings back into the mix to build a denser plant.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth. Strong fertiliser can damage fine roots in small pots.

Problems to check on 'Joly Josan Red'

  • Fast wilting: Check the root ball for dryness. Rewater evenly and keep the plant humid while it recovers.
  • Loose, open growth: Increase filtered light and pinch stem tips so new shoots form closer together.
  • Yellow, limp leaves: Inspect for waterlogged substrate or blocked drainage. Let the mix breathe and remove failing foliage.
  • Dry brown edges: Raise humidity, even out watering and keep the plant away from hot direct sun.

Household safety

Fittonia is listed as non-toxic to dogs, cats and horses by ASPCA under Fittonia verschaffeltii. Pruned material should still be removed after trimming, as chewed plant pieces can irritate the stomach.

Name and botanical background

Fittonia albivenis belongs to Acanthaceae and is native to wet tropical South America. Fittonia honours Elizabeth and Sarah Mary Fitton, while albivenis means “white-veined”, a reference to the pale-veined species background behind many modern red and pink selections. The Josan-line background sits behind this compact red-veined selection with dark green leaves and short creeping stems.

Fittonia 'Joly Josan Red' keeps a compact shape, dark green leaves and tight red venation at small scale.

Quality sunscreen with a light scent and no griminess!
Style: Kids SPF 50 Mineral Sunscreen Lotion, Size: 3 Ounce (1 Pack) Mineral Sunscreen
Most sunscreens I have used in the past have a very distinct smell and/or leaves excess oiliness residue, so you can imagine I have my doubts when a manufacturer advertises its product have a clear and lightweight application with hydrating and comfortable feel on application. To my surprise, this product actually delivers on its claims! The consistency of the lotion itself is indeed very lightweight and easily works into the skin without being greasy as normally found with other brands. Despite its light application, I found that it still offers great protection after being exposed to moisture or coming in contact with water. A sunscreen with a relatively high SPF protection in a non-greasy, lightly scented and weighted application along with its accommodative formulary for sensitive skin is quite impressive; and about the only negative I can find is its high price for a 3 oz. tube relative to other brands. Overall, this is a good sunscreen at its list price, and one that I can recommend if you can find it at a discount.

Good for body, reapply often, use something else on face
Style: Kids SPF 50 Mineral Sunscreen Lotion, Size: 3 Ounce (1 Pack) Mineral Sunscreen
We used this sunscreen at the Oregon coast on a cold but sunny February weekend and it had good sun protection. It’s non greasy and applies easily. No white cast when fully rubbed in and absorbed. My kids were able to use it without any irritations but I could not use it on my face, it irritated my skin immediately and I had to wash it off with facial cleanser and apply a sunscreen meant only for faces. I have sensitive skin and some rosacea, so this one I kept to only using on my arms and chest. One of my kids still got a sunburn on her cheeks after I applied this sunscreen, she had quite pale, sensitive skin, so again I would still recommend using something else on the face.

Clear but scented
Style: Kids SPF 50 Mineral Sunscreen Lotion, Size: 3 Ounce (1 Pack) Mineral Sunscreen
We go through a lot of sunscreen during summer with little ones, so we’ve tried many brands. This bottle is pretty small, which is both a plus (compact for traveling and putting in your purse) and a minus. I was so pleasantly surprised that this mineral sunscreen doesn’t leave a heavy white cast, as most others do. But, it is fragranced, which is both surprising and disappointing to me for more natural kids’ sunscreen. I do think it is effective, so if you don’t mind having some fragrance, then I would recommend. Our family doesn’t love added fragrances so this isn’t a great fit for us.

Light, not heavy or greasy. Minimal white cast
Style: Kids SPF 50 Mineral Sunscreen Lotion, Size: 3 Ounce (1 Pack) Mineral Sunscreen, Style: Kids SPF 50 Mineral Sunscreen Lotion, Size: 3 Ounce (1 Pack) Mineral Sunscreen
This sunscreen lotion is a thin consistency - it spreads and blends easily. Not a lot of tugging on the skin, as with thicker creams. It does not feel heavy or greasy, but it is not as light as a "sheer" sunscreen. This is a good weight for a mineral sunscreen. There is a minimal white cast on my medium toned skin. It's more visible on the darker areas, and less so on the lighter areas. It does seem to fade after a couple hours, so this is acceptable to me for the sun protection. This has a light, sweet coconut scent. Not fake and not overwhelming. Gentle on my kid's skin.

Clear mineral sunscreen!
Style: Kids SPF 50 Mineral Sunscreen Lotion, Size: 3 Ounce (1 Pack) Mineral Sunscreen
We have a beach trip coming up and needed to get some good sunscreen to use. We have used mineral sunscreen for years ( there is so much nastyness in regular sunscreen) but I have never tried this brand. Mineral sunscreen typically has zinc oxide in it and this one is no different. One thing that I have never liked about mineral sunscreen is that it always leaves you with a white film on your skin. This one is advertised as "drying clear" so I was really curious to try it out! I was pleasantly surprised to find out that it truly does! I'm so excited to not have the nasty while film all over our skin!
