Overview

Quick Care Guide

Care Difficulty: Super easy to care for and can grow well in a variety of conditions.

Light requirements: Prefers bright but indirect sunlight. Direct sunlight will burn the leaves. Can tolerate lower light conditions.

Watering: Water thoroughly and allow top 2 inches of soil to dry out between waterings, do not let this plant completely dry out. Prone to root rot so make sure the soil isn’t waterlogged.

Humidity: Loves humidity. Grouping humidity-loving plants together can help, as can placing pots of a wet pebble tray. You can mist the area around the foliage although this will only increase humidity temporarily. Humidifiers are also beneficial to increase humidity. Brown tips are a sign it needs more humidity.

Toxicity: Non toxic to humans and pets

Feeding: Enjoys a feed around once a month in spring and summer but not during the winter

Repotting: Check to see if the plant is root bound, look for roots coming out the bottom of the pot!
