Care Guide

Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid strong direct sunlight, particularly hot afternoon sun, as this may scorch the foliage or reduce its attractive colouring.

Water: Keep the potting mix evenly and lightly moist, allowing the upper layer to dry slightly between watering. Avoid letting the plant sit in water.

Soil: Grow in a quality, well-draining indoor plant mix that retains some moisture while allowing excess water to escape easily.

Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity. Good humidity is particularly beneficial for maintaining healthy foliage and reducing dry or crispy leaf edges.

Position: Best suited to a warm, protected indoor position with good natural light. Keep away from cold draughts and direct airflow from air conditioners or heaters.

Temperature: Enjoys warm, stable temperatures. Protect from cold conditions and sudden temperature changes.

Feeding: Apply a diluted liquid indoor plant fertiliser periodically during the active growing season to encourage healthy foliage.

Maintenance: Remove damaged or ageing leaves as required. Wipe the foliage gently when dusty to keep the leaves looking fresh and healthy.

Good to Know
