Light 🌞
Provide bright indirect light. Avoid harsh direct afternoon sun, which can damage the velvety foliage.

Watering 💧
Water when the upper portion of the soil begins to dry. Keep the mix lightly moist but never waterlogged.

Soil 🕳️
Use a chunky airy aroid mix with orchid bark, perlite, coco coir, and potting soil for excellent drainage and healthy roots.

Fertilizing 🧪
Feed monthly during active growth with a balanced fertilizer diluted to half strength.

Repotting 🪴
Repot when roots begin filling the container or when the potting mix starts compacting. A moss pole can encourage larger mature foliage.
