Care Instructions:

Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Too much direct sunlight can cause leaf scorch, so position it near a window with filtered light or use sheer curtains.

Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist but avoid waterlogging. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. In winter, reduce watering as the plant enters dormancy.

Humidity: Thrives in higher humidity levels (50% or more). Misting the leaves, using a humidity tray, or placing a humidifier nearby can help maintain the ideal humidity.

Temperature: Ideal temperatures range from 65oF to 75oF (18oC to 24oC). Keep the plant away from cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.

Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix, such as one designed for houseplants or a mix of peat, perlite, and orchid bark to ensure good aeration.

Fertilization: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce or stop fertilizing in fall and winter.

Pruning: Regularly remove any dead or yellowing leaves to promote healthy growth and maintain the plants appearance.
