Help me grow!

• The ‘soak and dry the soil’ is the basic principle for watering me. Water the soil completely and wait for it to dry out before watering again. 
• I like bright light and can easily withstand direct sunlight too, similar to my natural habitat. Low light conditions turn my leaves darker.
• I love the warmth and cannot tolerate cold temperatures. Normal indoor humidity and temperature work well for me.
• A fertile soil with good drainage is a must. Use Terracotta or clay pots that are able to soak excess water, if any.
• I possess exceptional air-purifying abilities that filter indoor air pollutants.
• Advisable to keep me out of reach of kids and pets, as my leaves can prove harmful if ingested.
• I rarely require any pruning. Simply cut and discard damaged leaves.

FAQs

1. How do you keep pests away from the plant?
   Prevention is the best cure, so avoid overwatering to prevent root rot. Do not water the leaves directly as wet leaves invite pests, fungus and rotting.
   
   
2. Does the plant require fertilizers?
   Use a balanced houseplant fertilizer to supply me with adequate nutrition. Mild doses once a month in spring and summer is the ideal schedule.
