Marcel the Shell

Marcel the Shell is a Caput-Medusae hanging inside a large Snail Shell. They are perfect to hanging inside a shadow box or simply from your kitchen window. Marcel enjoys the morning sunshine or all day filtered light and can be hung inside or outside. The shell measures 8-9cm.

Make sure you keep Marcel's fluids up with a mist of spray 2-3 times a week or a dip in water for 1/2 hour once a week. The hotter the climate you live the more misting is required. With caputs it is fairly easy to spot when they are under-watered, as the leaves start to curl more, so use this as a cue to up your watering regime.

Please note that every shell and plant is unique. The photos on this website are examples only and not the actual one you will be receiving. It is very similar, but may slightly vary in colour, shape and size.

They are suitable for QLD, VIC, NSW, ACT, SA climates.  Sorry, due to state regulations, this plant can NOT be posted to Tas, WA, NT
