Care TipsLightPrefers bright, indirect lightToo little light leads to pale leaves and weak growthToo much direct sun causes leaf burn and loss of color intensityWateringMaintain lightly moist soil without keeping it soakedAllow the top layer of soil to dry slightly between wateringsSoft, filtered or rainwater is recommendedHumidityIdeal humidity is 70–90 percentThrives in terrariums, display cases or controlled environmentsLow humidity causes crispy edges and slowed growthTemperatureIdeal temperature range: 20–28°C (68–82°F)Avoid temperatures below 17°C (62°F)SoilUse a very airy, fast-draining substrateA suitable mix can include: coco or peat, perlite, bark, and a small amount of crushed limestoneAvoid dense soils that retain too much moistureFertilizationFeed lightly every 2–3 weeks during the growing seasonUse a diluted, balanced fertilizerAdditional NotesSensitive to overwatering and sudden environmental shiftsPerforms best with stable humidity and temperaturePropagation from stem cuttings is possible but requires high humidity to root well
