Light
Can tolerate a great variety of indirect light levels; if on the brighter end, keep an eye out for dehydrating or drying out plants; if on the darker, beware of over-watering.
Water
Allow the top third of the soil to dry out in between watering; reduce this further in autumn and winter, and note that your plant will need more frequent watering the brighter the location.
Humidity
Average humidity is fine, but your plant will benefit form an occasional misting or humidity tray.
Soil
Use a coarse, well-draining soil and repot every year as it outgrows each pot.
Food
Feed every four waters in the growing season, reduce to every six in autumn and winter. However, if your plant is actively growing new leaves in the winter, continue to feed, until the plant stops producing new leaves.
Temperature
Ideal temperature is 18-30°C; make sure it does not get colder than 12°C in winter.
Pet-safe
No, this plant is toxic to pets and small humans.

Lovely little plant beautifully packaged. Arrived in perfect condition at a great price. Thank you so much :)
I bought a 'medium' and what arrived was a very generously sized plant which I was very happy with . Plant was in good condition, and was very carefully wrapped for shipping.
What a treat—a box full of surprise plants, including two I haven't grown before. All except one of the five received were far from wonky really, and I hope the struggler will catch up with the others with a bit of tlc! It's a great way to shop for indoor plants and loads of fun unpacking. The handwritten note is a brilliant guide on what they each need. I definitely recommend it, and I will likely be back to try the bigger version!!
Very happy! Exactly as ordered.
