1. Sunlight: Prefers bright, indirect light. It can tolerate lower light levels but will grow more slowly. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.
2. Watering: Water moderately, allowing the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so ensure proper drainage.
3. Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix, such as one formulated for houseplants or a mix of peat, perlite, and sand.
4. Temperature: Thrives in temperatures between 65-75°F (18-24°C). Keep it away from drafts and temperatures below 50°F (10°C).
5. Humidity: It enjoys moderate to high humidity. Mist the plant occasionally or use a humidity tray to maintain optimal conditions.
6. Pruning: Remove any dead or yellowing leaves to keep the plant looking its best. Regular pruning helps maintain its shape and health.
