PLANT CARE

18–25°C (65–77°F)
Shaded Light
High Humidity
Use rainwater or distilled water to keep the compost moist from spring to autumn; in winter, allow the top to dry out between waterings. Mist the leaves every day and set on a tray of damp pebbles, or install a room humidifier.

ADDITIONAL CARE

If you notice a tip or edge burn often with a yellowish hue at the edge, especially on older leaves, it could be due to your tap water. To solve this, allow your tap water to stand overnight before watering so the chlorine and fluoride can evaporate. Remove any yellow leaves to keep your plant strong and growing. Do not use any shine products on the leaves, instead, clean leaves occasionally with a damp cloth
