Care Tips:

  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can cause leaf scorch.
  • Temperature: Thrives in temperatures ranging from 7°C to 35°C (45°F to 95°F), making it suitable for a variety of indoor environments.
  • Humidity: Requires high humidity (60% - 95%). Ideal for growing in terrariums, greenhouses, or other humidity-controlled spaces.
  • Watering: Keep the soil lightly moist, watering when the top 2-3 inches of soil feel dry. Be cautious not to overwater, as this can lead to root rot.
