Sun Requirements ▾
Thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions.
Avoid direct sunlight, which can fade or burn the foliage
East- or north-facing windows are ideal
Low light may reduce variegation, but won’t harm the plant
Watering Instructions ▾
Keep soil consistently moist, but not soggy.
Water when the top inch feels dry
Do not let it dry out completely
Use filtered or distilled water to avoid leaf tip browning caused by mineral buildup
Care Tips ▾
Soil:
Loves a loose, well-draining mix.
Use an indoor potting mix with added perlite or coco coir
Slightly acidic to neutral pH is best
Ensure containers have drainage holes
Fertilizer:
Feed every 4–6 weeks during the growing season (spring through early fall).
Use a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer
Skip feeding in winter when growth slows
Avoid overfertilizing to prevent salt buildup
Humidity:
High humidity is key to keeping foliage lush and healthy.
Aim for 50% humidity or higher
Use a pebble tray, humidifier, or group it with other plants
Brown leaf edges are often a sign of low humidity
