Care Guide
Light: Prefers bright to medium indirect light. It can tolerate lower light conditions, but growth may slow and coloration may become less vibrant. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.
Water: Water when the top 2–3 inches of soil are dry. Keep soil lightly moist but never soggy. Overwatering can lead to root rot.
Soil: Use a well-draining, airy mix such as potting soil combined with perlite and orchid bark. Good drainage is essential.
Temperature: Ideal range is 18–27°C. Protect from cold drafts and sudden temperature drops.
Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity but adapts well to average indoor levels. Higher humidity encourages healthier, larger foliage.
Fertilizer: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer once a month during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce feeding in fall and winter.
Pruning & Maintenance: Remove yellowing or damaged leaves to encourage new growth and maintain appearance.
Tips: Provide space for expansion as it matures into a large, statement plant. Rotate occasionally for even growth.
