Basic Care:
• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent leaf scorch.
• Watering: Keep the soil slightly moist, allowing the top layer to dry out between waterings. Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.
• Humidity: Thrives in high-humidity environments. Increase humidity by misting the leaves, using a pebble tray with water, or placing a humidifier nearby.
• Temperature: Best grown in temperatures between 64-77°F (18-25°C). Protect from cold drafts and temperatures below 55°F (13°C).
• Soil: Use a well-draining, organic-rich potting mix with peat and perlite.
• Fertilization: Apply a diluted, balanced fertilizer during spring and summer to encourage healthy growth.
