Care tips for this plant include:

Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate partial shade. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.

 

Water: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry.

 

Humidity: Thrives in higher humidity but can adapt to average household levels. Misting can help during dry periods.

 

Temperature: Best grown in temperatures between 65°F and 75°F (18°C to 24°C). Protect from frost.


Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix. A mix designed for houseplants works well.

 

Fertilizing: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).

 

Pruning: Prune as needed to encourage bushier growth and remove any leggy or damaged stems.

 

This plant can be a great addition to indoor spaces, providing attractive foliage and easy care.
