-
Light: Prefers bright, indirect light, mimicking its natural epiphytic habitat. Avoid direct sunlight which can scorch the delicate young leaves.
-
Temperature: Thrives in warm and consistent temperatures between 18-25°C (64-77°F). Protect from cold drafts.
-
Humidity: Requires high humidity levels, ideally 70% or higher, to support healthy development of the young foliage.
-
Watering: Keep the potting mix consistently moist but well-draining. Due to the young nature of the plant, avoid letting the substrate completely dry out.
-
Maintenance: As a baby plant, repot according to growth until it reaches medium size. Provide adequate water, light, and fertilizer, but use less than for adult plants to avoid damaging development.
