Care

General Maintenance: Can be propagated from stem cuttings, but they are very slow to root and grow. Repot only once they are overly rootbound. Replace some of the topsoil annually to provide new nutrients and prevent compaction of the soil, if not fully repotting. Prune to keep the desired length.

Temperature: Indoor temperatures between 18°C – 24°C are ideal. They do not want to be below 10°C. Avoid drafts and drastic temperature changes.

Light:

Watering: These plants prefer bright indirect light. Too much direct sunlight can scorch their leaves. Can benefit from direct early morning sun.

Soil: Any well-draining and well-aerated soil will work perfectly. Something with peat and perlite or bark would be ideal.

Fertilizer: Feed with a diluted liquid fertilizer in the spring and summer. Do not fertilize in the winter.
