These plants grow well in common peat moss, or a sand peat blend (50% peat moss). Plants should be watered with distilled, rain or reverse osmosis water only. The growing medium should remain moist at all times, never drying out. Grow in a very bright location. If growing indoors, these plants require a cold/dormant period for about 3 months. Place the container in a cool garage or refrigerator for this period, making sure it doesn't entirely dry out during this dormant period.
