-
Light: Bright, indirect light near an east-facing window or behind a sheer curtain. Avoid direct midday sun.
-
Temperature: Intermediate to warm-growing, ideally 65–80°F (18–27°C). Protect from cold drafts and abrupt temperature changes.
-
Humidity: Aim for 70–85% humidity with gentle air circulation, especially while new leaves develop.
-
Watering: Keep the medium lightly moist, allowing the surface to begin drying between waterings. Use an airy aroid mix and drain thoroughly; avoid waterlogged roots or prolonged drying.
-
Growth Habit: Upright, short-stemmed growth with elongated leaves that hang outward as they develop. A moss pole is not essential for young plants; provide support if the stem elongates and aerial roots develop.
Additional Notes:
Elongated, heart-shaped green leaves feature a softly textured surface, pale midribs, and gently rippled margins. Leaf shape and venation may vary among individual plants. Give developing leaves ample space to unfurl without touching nearby surfaces.
