CARE TIPS
Keep above 15 degrees in moisture-retaining soil. Mist regularly and wipe leaves with damp cloth and keep in warm conditions such as well lit kitchens and bathrooms. Will tolerate low light but best in medium indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight as it will scorch the plant. Apply a rich slow release fertiliser every three months for vibrant healthy foliage.
