Care Instructions

  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but adapts well to medium and low-light conditions. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight, which can damage its fronds.

  • Temperature: Maintain temperatures between 60°F and 75°F. Protect from cold drafts and temperatures below 50°F.
  • Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix rich in organic matter, such as one formulated for ferns or tropical plants.
