Light

  • Bright, Indirect Light: Thrives in bright, filtered light. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves and dull their vibrant color.
  • Low Light Tolerance: Can tolerate lower light levels but may exhibit slower growth and less intense coloration.

Watering

  • Consistent Moisture: Keep the soil consistently moist, but not soggy. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry.
  • Avoid Waterlogging: Ensure the pot has good drainage to prevent root rot. Empty excess water from saucers after watering.

Humidity

  • High Humidity: Prefers high humidity levels (50% or more). Consider using a humidity tray or a humidifier to maintain optimal conditions.
  • Regular Mistings: Light misting can help increase humidity and keep the plant’s foliage looking fresh.

Temperature

  • Ideal Temperature Range: Enjoys temperatures between 65°F and 75°F (18°C to 24°C). Keep away from temperatures below 50°F (10°C) and avoid sudden temperature fluctuations.
