Care Guide
Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent leaf burn. Can tolerate moderate light but growth may slow.
Water: Keep soil evenly moist, allowing the top 2 cm to dry between waterings. Avoid letting roots sit in water to prevent rot.
Humidity: Thrives in high humidity; mist regularly or use a humidifier for optimal growth.
Temperature: Ideal between 18–27 °C. Protect from cold drafts and sudden temperature fluctuations.
Soil: Use a well-draining, rich potting mix. Adding perlite or orchid bark improves aeration.
 
Pet & Reptile Safety
⚠️ Not safe for pets or reptiles. Ingestion may cause irritation or vomiting.
 
Quick Care Tips
🌿 Rotate plant to encourage even growth.
🌿 Wipe leaves to remove dust and maintain shine.
🌿 Use a humidity tray or pebble tray to boost moisture levels.

Troubleshooting
Yellow leaves: Often due to overwatering or poor drainage.
