Care & Growing Condition:
-
Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Can tolerate low light but may grow more slowly and produce smaller leaves.
-
Water: Water when the top few inches of soil feels dry. Be careful not to overwater; ensure proper drainage to avoid root rot.
-
Humidity: Enjoys high humidity levels (50% or more). Consider using a humidifier or placing a pebble tray with water beneath the pot to increase moisture.
-
Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix that retains moisture without becoming soggy. A mix designed for aroids or tropical plants is ideal.
-
Fertilizer: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce feeding during the fall and winter months.
-
Pruning: Prune as needed to control size and shape.
-
Repotting: Repot every 1-2 years or when the plant outgrows its pot. Choose a pot that is one size larger with good drainage.
