Best Growing Conditions
Best grown in a location that gets at least four hours of full sunlight a day. Ideally in an east facing window that allows it to receive shade in the afternoons. Due to its tropical nature it likes to grow in a warm environment at 20°C. Water when the top two to four inches of soil is dry to the touch, allowing the water to drain out of the pot. Remove any excess from the saucer as this can lead to root rot. During Autumn and Winter, water lightly only every 3 to 4 weeks.
