Care Guide

Step 1

Place in bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight as it can burn the leaves.

Step 2

Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil feels dry to the touch, typically once a week.

Step 3

Use well-draining soil and a pot with drainage holes.

Step 4

Maintain humidity around 60% if possible. Mist occasionally or use a humidifier.

Step 5

Feed with a balanced houseplant fertilizer during the growing season (spring and summer).
