Know before you buy
This plant prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves, or in deep shade, which may slow its growth.
Maintain a moderate watering schedule. Allow the top inch or two of soil to dry out completely between waterings to prevent root rot, as this plant prefers to be slightly on the drier side rather than waterlogged.
It prefers medium humidity levels. While it adapts well to standard household conditions, it will appreciate a light misting or a spot near other plants if your indoor air is particularly dry.
Yes, the plant arrives fully potted and ready for display. You can choose between a 4-inch or 6-inch pot diameter depending on the size of the space you intend to fill.
It has a medium growth rate. With proper care and consistent light, you can expect steady, manageable growth, making it a great long-term addition to your home.
