Care Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Light:

This plant prefers shade, meaning it grows best in areas with minimal direct sunlight. Ideal locations include corners of rooms away from windows, shaded balconies, or under larger plants or furniture where light is soft and diffused throughout the day.

Water:

Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil feel dry. Avoid overwatering & ensure pots have drainage holes. Frequency may vary with season and light, roughly once every 5–10 days.

Growing Media:

30–40% Coco Coir/Peat Moss: For moisture retention without waterlogging.
20–30% Perlite/Pumice: Improves drainage and aeration.
20–30% Leaf Compost/Orchid Bark: Enhances structure and airflow.
10–20% Vermicompost/Compost: Provides slow-release nutrients.

Optional: A handful of horticultural charcoal for added root health. This mix supports healthy, lush foliage and prevents rot in warm, humid indoor environments.

Feeding & Fertilization:

For these plants, use a balanced liquid fertilizer (such as 10-10-10 or 20-20-20) at half strength every 3–4 weeks during the growing season. They thrive with gentle, regular feeding to support healthy foliage and roots. A slow-release fertilizer applied once in spring also works well. In winter, reduce or stop feeding as growth slows.

You can also enrich the soil by mixing in a small amount of well-aged compost or vermicompost every 2–3 months. This provides a steady source of organic nutrients and improves soil structure, helping the plants stay healthy over time.
