Plant Care

Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light but will tolerate lower light. Avoid direct sun, which can fade its striping.
Watering: Keep soil evenly moist but not soggy. Let the top 2–3cm of soil dry before watering. Sensitive to tap water — use filtered, rain, or distilled.
Temperature: Happy in 18–26°C, avoid drops below 15°C and protect from drafts.
Potting: Prefers Thirst Trap mix for moisture retention with good drainage.
Hot tips: Loves humidity — a pebble tray or humid room is ideal (but no misting here at Plant Studio!). Rotate regularly for balanced growth.
