Care Guide:
- Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves. Low to medium light conditions are also tolerated, though growth may be slower.
- Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Use distilled, filtered, or rainwater to avoid leaf damage caused by minerals in tap water.
- Humidity: Prefers high humidity. Mist regularly, place on a pebble tray, or use a humidifier to prevent crispy leaf edges.
- Soil: Use a well-draining, rich potting mix. A blend with peat moss or coco coir works well for retaining moisture without waterlogging.
- Fertilizer: Feed with a diluted liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Avoid over-fertilizing to prevent root damage.
- Temperature: Maintain a temperature range of 65–80°F (18–27°C). Protect from drafts and sudden temperature changes.
- Pruning: Trim off any yellowing or damaged leaves to promote healthy growth and maintain its attractive appearance.
