P L A N T C A R E
Light
Requires a great deal of indirect, bright light
Too much direct light can scorch leaves, too little direct light can cause lethargic growth
Water
Moderate watering is best
Allow the top layer of the potting medium to dry out between watering
Soil
Will grow best in soil that is well-aerated, evenly moist
Organic matter such as sand or sphagnum moss helps encourage good drainage, absorbency and prevents over-compaction
Will thrive with the application of a slow-releasing fertilizer 1-2 times a month during the growing season
