Plant Care

Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate lower light conditions but may grow more slowly and become leggy. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.

Water: Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Reduce watering frequency in the winter when the plant's growth slows down.

Humidity: Prefers moderate humidity. Increase humidity by misting the leaves occasionally or using a humidifier if needed.

Temperature: Ideal temperatures range from 65°F to 75°F (18°C to 24°C). Protect from drafts and temperatures below 50°F (10°C).

Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a blend of peat, perlite, and pine bark.

Fertilizer: Feed with a balanced, liquid houseplant fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Cut back on feeding in fall and winter.

Repotting: Repot every 2-3 years or when the plant becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is 1-2 inches larger in diameter.
