Care Guide
Slightly more attentive than some houseplants, but very rewarding once settled.
Light | Prefers bright, indirect light. Too little light can dull the colours; direct sun may scorch the leaves.
Water | Keep the soil lightly moist. Allow the top layer to dry slightly between waterings, and avoid letting it dry out completely.
Temperature | Enjoys warmth and stable conditions. Keep away from cold drafts.
Maintenance | Moderate. Likes higher humidity — occasional misting helps keep the foliage looking its best.
Good to know | Leaves naturally move and fold in the evening — a normal and beautiful trait of this plant.
