Product Details

Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light; too little light will leave it leggy and damp, and too much bleached and dried-out. Water: Water once the pot begins to feel light when lifted; these plants like to be moist, and prefer to be bottom-watered (using a dish underneath rather than pouring onto the soil) to prevent their leaves accumulating damp! Humidity: Average humidity is fine, but your plant will benefit form an occasional misting or humidity tray. Soil: Use a moisture-retentive, well-draining mix to keep this thirsty plant happy but not too soggy. Repot every three years if absolutely necessary; this plant is better potbound than drowning in soil. Food: Feed every four waters in the growing season, reduce to every six in autumn and winter. Temperature: Temperature should ideally be between 16-30°C- make sure it doesn't drop below 10°C in winter.
