Care Instructions

  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain vibrant foliage. Tolerates medium light but may lose some color intensity in low light. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.
  • Water: Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Water sparingly to prevent overwatering, which can lead to root rot.
  • Humidity: Thrives in normal indoor humidity but appreciates occasional misting in drier environments.
  • Feeding: Fertilize every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) with a diluted liquid fertilizer.
  • Temperature: Maintain temperatures between 65°F and 80°F. Protect from cold drafts and temperatures below 50°F.
  • Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix with organic matter.
