-
Light: Prefers bright, indirect sunlight but can adapt to low light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves.
-
Water: Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Ensure the pot has drainage holes to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot.
-
Humidity: Thrives in moderate to high humidity but is relatively adaptable. Mist the leaves occasionally to enhance humidity, especially in dry environments.
-
Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix, preferably one formulated for houseplants. A mix containing peat, perlite, or orchid bark works well.
-
Fertilizer: Fertilize every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced houseplant fertilizer.
-
Repotting: Repot every 1-2 years or when the plant becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is 1-2 inches larger in diameter than the current one.
-
Pruning: Prune as needed to control growth and maintain shape. Remove any yellow or damaged leaves to encourage new growth.
