PLANT CARE
 |
7–30°C (45–86°F) |
 |
Filtered Light |
 |
Low Humidity |
 |
Keep the compost moist at all times, but a little drier in winter. Mist every day or two in hot summer weather.Allow the top 2cm (3⁄4in) of compost to dry out between waterings from spring to autumn. Water just once or twice in winter when the plant is dormant. |
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
