• Light: Bright indirect light with 60–70% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which bleaches and damages the textured leaf surface.
• Temperature: 60–80°F (16–27°C). Intermediate to warm grower; protect from temperatures below 55°F (13°C).
• Humidity: 70–90%; very high humidity is essential for optimal leaf size and texture. A humidifier or enclosed growing space is strongly recommended.
• Watering: Keep the mix evenly moist but never waterlogged; use a chunky, well-aerated mix to prevent root rot. Never allow roots to dry out completely.
