Light

• Prefers bright, indirect light.

• Can tolerate low light but may grow more slowly.

• Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the delicate foliage.

Watering

• Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy.

• Avoid letting the soil dry out completely, as this can damage the plant.

• Increase humidity by misting or placing the pot on a tray with water and pebbles.

Temperature

• Ideal temperature: 60–75°F.

• Sensitive to temperatures below 50°F.

• Avoid exposure to cold drafts, heaters, and air conditioners.

Fertilizing

• Feed during the growing season (spring–summer) with a diluted liquid fertilizer every 4–6 weeks.

• Reduce or stop fertilizing in fall and winter when growth slows.
