1. Light:
Prefers bright, indirect sunlight for the best leaf color.
Can tolerate some direct morning sun, but too much harsh midday sun can scorch the leaves.
2. Watering:
Keep soil evenly moist but not soggy.
Water when the top inch of soil feels dry.
Reduce watering slightly in cooler months.
3. Soil:
Use well-draining, rich soil. A mix of potting soil, perlite, and compost works well.
4. Temperature & Humidity:
Thrives in 65–85°F (18–29°C).
Loves humidity – mist leaves occasionally or use a humidifier indoors.
5. Fertilizing:
Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4–6 weeks during spring and summer.
Avoid overfertilizing, which can burn roots.
6. Pruning:
Remove dead or yellowing leaves to keep the plant neat.
You can trim the top to encourage bushier growth.
7. Pests:
Watch for spider mites, mealybugs, and scale. Wipe leaves with a damp cloth and treat with insecticidal soap if needed.
8. Extra Tip:
Rotate the plant every few weeks so all sides get even light and color.
