Care Guide
Light: Bright, indirect light is ideal. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves. Can tolerate moderate light, but growth may slow.
Water: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil feel dry. Reduce watering slightly in winter when growth slows.
Soil: Well-draining, airy soil mix. A mix of potting soil, perlite, and orchid bark works well. Avoid compacted or water-retentive soils.
Temperature: 65–85°F (18–29°C).
Humidity: 60%+ preferred, though it adapts to 50%. Boost humidity with a humidifier, pebble tray, or grouping plants.
Fertilizer: Feed monthly during growing season (spring–summer) with a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer. Reduce feeding in fall and winter.
Potting & Repotting: Repot every 1–2 years or when the plant outgrows its pot. Use a pot with drainage holes to prevent root rot.
Pest & Problems: Can be affected by spider mites, aphids, or mealybugs. Watch for yellowing leaves—often a sign of overwatering. Brown leaf tips may indicate low humidity.
Safety: Toxic to pets and humans if ingested. Keep out of reach.
