This plant is extremely low-maintenance. It prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate low light conditions. Water sparsely, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings to prevent root rot. It tolerates dry air and average room temperatures. Fertilize sparingly during the growing season (spring/summer) with a balanced liquid fertilizer. Repot only when necessary, as they prefer to be slightly root-bound. Dust leaves occasionally to maintain their appearance.
