Care & Maintenance

• Light: Position in bright, indirect sunlight. Avoid direct, harsh afternoon sun, which can scorch the delicate white areas of the leaves.
• Watering: Water thoroughly when the soil feels dry a few centimetres down. Reduce watering frequency during cooler winter months. Always discard excess water from saucer trays to prevent root rot.
• Temperature & Drafts: Prefers warm indoor temperatures (above 15°C) and should be protected from cold drafts, air conditioning units, and sudden temperature drops.
• Humidity: Appreciates moderate ambient humidity; mist occasionally with clean water or group with other houseplants during dry spells.
• Feeding: Feed with a balanced, water-soluble liquid foliage fertiliser diluted to half-strength once a month during spring and summer. Skip feeding during autumn and winter.
