Care Guide
Light
Prefers bright, indirect light for healthy growth.
Can adapt to medium light, but growth may slow.
Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch leaves.
Water
Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil feel dry.
Keep soil moist but not soggy.
Reduce watering during winter when growth slows.
Use lukewarm, filtered water to avoid leaf spotting.
Temperature & Humidity
Ideal temperature: 18–27°C (65–80°F).
Keep away from drafts, heaters, and AC vents.
Prefers moderate humidity; mist leaves occasionally or place near a humidifier.
Soil & Potting
Use a well-draining potting mix with peat, perlite, or sand.
Ensure the pot has proper drainage holes.
Repot every 1–2 years or when roots outgrow the container.
Fertilizing
Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer once a month during spring and summer.
Skip or reduce feeding in autumn and winter.
Over-fertilization can damage roots and cause yellowing.
Pruning & Maintenance
Trim leggy or damaged stems to encourage bushier growth.
Wipe leaves regularly with a damp cloth to remove dust and keep them shiny.
Wear gloves when pruning; the plant’s milky sap may irritate skin.
Propagation
Propagate through stem cuttings in soil or water.
Best done in spring or early summer for quicker rooting.

Yellow leaves → Overwatering or poor drainage.
