Care Instructions

  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain vibrant variegation. Tolerates medium light but may grow slower and lose some vibrancy. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch its leaves.
  • Water: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Use filtered or distilled water to avoid mineral buildup.

  • Feeding: Fertilize every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer. Reduce feeding in fall and winter.
  • Temperature: Maintain temperatures between 65°F and 80°F. Protect from cold drafts and temperatures below 60°F.
  • Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix rich in organic matter, such as one formulated for tropical plants.
