Light: Bright, indirect light; avoid direct sun to prevent leaf scorch. A north- or east-facing window is ideal.
-
Temperature: Warm growing; thrives at 65–85°F (18–29°C). Protect from drafts and temperatures below 60°F (15°C).
-
Humidity: High humidity, ideally 60–80%. Use a humidifier or pebble tray to maintain moisture levels.
-
Watering: Water when the top inch of soil is dry. Ensure excellent drainage to prevent root rot; reduce frequency in winter.
