Care Tips

• Light: Prefers medium to bright, indirect light. Ample filtered light will enhance its variegation. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch its leaves. Too little light may cause the variegation to fade.

• Water: Keep the soil consistently moist during the growing season (spring through fall). Allow the top inch or two of soil to dry out before rewatering. Reduce watering in winter. Ensure good drainage to prevent soggy soil, which can lead to root rot.

• Humidity: Thrives in high humidity, typical of its tropical origins. Mist regularly, use a humidifier, or place on a pebble tray filled with water to provide adequate moisture.

• Soil: Use a well-draining, rich potting mix that retains some moisture. An all-purpose houseplant mix with added perlite or orchid bark is suitable.

• Temperature: Prefers warm, consistent temperatures between 18-29°C (65-85°F). Protect from cold drafts, sudden temperature drops, and temperatures below 15°C (60°F).

• Feeding: Fertilize every 2-4 weeks during the spring and summer growing seasons with a balanced liquid houseplant food, diluted to half strength.

• Cleaning: Gently wipe leaves occasionally with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and maintain their glossy appearance.
