- Mature Size: Reaches about 2-3 feet tall and wide, making it a medium-sized plant perfect for brightening up corners or tabletops.
Care Instructions:
- Light: Prefers low to medium, indirect light. Bright, direct sunlight can cause the leaves to fade or scorch.
- Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top inch of soil to dry slightly between waterings. Use filtered or distilled water to avoid leaf browning caused by minerals.
- Humidity: Thrives in high humidity. Mist regularly or place it near a humidifier to prevent the leaves from curling or drying out.
- Temperature: Keep in a warm environment with temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Protect from cold drafts and temperatures below 60°F (15°C).
- Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix with high organic matter to retain moisture while preventing sogginess.
- Fertilizer: Feed with a diluted liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).
