Know before you buy
No, this plant is not pet-safe. It is best kept in a location that is inaccessible to cats and dogs.
To maintain its vibrant pink variegation, place it in a spot with bright, indirect light. While it can tolerate medium light, lower light levels may cause the leaves to lose some of their signature color.
Check the soil moisture by feeling the top few inches; you should wait to water until the soil is dry about halfway down the pot. Because it is a slow grower, it prefers to dry out slightly between waterings rather than sitting in soggy soil.
It prefers medium humidity levels, which are typical for most indoor environments. If your home is particularly dry, you can place it near other plants or on a pebble tray to help maintain a comfortable microclimate.
No, the plant arrives fully potted and ready to display. Because it is a slow-growing variety, it will be comfortable in its current container for quite some time.
