🌤️ Light

Prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sun, which can scorch the leaves. Can adapt to medium light conditions, though color vibrancy may be softer.

💧 Water

Keep soil consistently moist but never soggy. Allow the top inch to dry between waterings. Use filtered or distilled water when possible to prevent mineral buildup.

🌿 Humidity

Loves humidity! Maintain at least 60%. Use a pebble tray, humidifier, or group with other tropical plants to create a lush microclimate.

🌡️ Temperature

Thrives in warm indoor temperatures between 65°F and 85°F (18°C–29°C). Keep away from drafts and cold air.

🪴 Soil & Repotting

Use a chunky, well-draining aroid mix (orchid bark, perlite, peat, and coco coir). Repot every 1–2 years as roots expand to maintain healthy growth.

🌱 Fertilizer

Feed monthly during spring and summer with a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer to support vibrant foliage color and new growth.
