Quick Care Guide

Care Difficulty: Super easy to care for, perfect for a beginner.

Light requirements: Likes bright but indirect sunlight but can tolerate some shade. Direct sunlight will burn its leaves!

Watering: Water thoroughly and allow the top 2 inches of soil to dry out between waterings. This plant does not like its soil to be waterlogged.

Humidity: Can do well in normal household conditions but will enjoy a bit of humidity so make sure you give it an occasional mist or place in the kitchen or bathroom. They will also appreciate wiping clean the eaves with a damp cloth.

Toxicity: Toxic to humans and pets

Feeding: Enjoys a feed in spring and summer, follow the directions on your fertiliser.

Repotting: Repot every 2 years or check to see if the roots are coming out the bottom of the pot!
