💧- Just allow the top soil to dry out slightly before watering again. She likes the soil to be damp, not wet. Reduce it some over winter, and don’t let the bottom of the plant sit in water. Prefers rainwater or filtered.
🌡️- Average to warm household temperatures from 18°C to 27°C don’t place it in a room with fluctuating temperature as she prefers a regular indoor environment.
