Secrets to success

Temperature: Ideally between 15 and 20°C. Can tolerate short periods of 10°C.

Light: These plants grow in medium light with some shade - their natural environment is fairly shaded by dense rainforest canopy.

Air Humidity: They prefer higher humidity; this can be achieved by grouping plants together, misting, using a humidifier or placing your plant on a watered pebble tray.

Watering: During spring and summer water liberally and reduce watering in winter.

Potting mix: Use a potting mix with coarse sand and perlite for good drainage.

This plant is non-toxic.
