Know before you buy
This plant thrives in bright, indirect light. Placing it near a window with sheer curtains or in a spot that receives plenty of natural light without direct, harsh sun will help maintain its vibrant variegation.
It is classified as an intermediate-level plant. While its watering routine is straightforward, it requires specific light and temperature conditions to stay healthy, making it better suited for those with some experience caring for tropical foliage.
We recommend waiting. The plant needs a brief rest period to acclimate to your home's environment after shipping before you attempt to move it into a new pot.
Because this is a vining plant, it will naturally trail or climb as it matures. You can let it hang from a shelf or provide a moss pole or trellis if you prefer to train it to grow vertically.
No, this plant is toxic to pets. It is best to keep it in a location that is completely inaccessible to curious animals.
The most reliable method is to check the soil moisture. Water the plant thoroughly once the soil feels dry to the touch, which typically aligns with a weekly schedule depending on your home's humidity and temperature.
