Plant Care

Light Requirements: Bright, indirect light is best. It can tolerate lower light, but growth will be slower. Avoid strong direct afternoon sun, which can scorch the leaves.

Water Requirements: Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil feels dry. Water thoroughly until it drains from the bottom, then empty excess water. Avoid letting it sit in soggy soil.

Fertilizer: Feed about once a month during spring and summer with a balanced, diluted houseplant fertilizer. Reduce or stop fertilizing during fall and winter.

Soil: Use a very well-draining, moisture-retentive potting mix. A standard houseplant mix amended with perlite works well.

Temperature: Prefers 65-80 degrees. Keep away from cold drafts, heaters, and temperatures below about 5 degrees.

Pet Safety: Toxic
