The Nitty-Gritty (Plant Care):
• Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light—some gentle morning sun is ideal, but avoid harsh afternoon rays.
• Water: Prefers moderately moist soil—water when the top inch feels dry, but don’t let it sit in soggy soil.
• Humidity: Loves moderate to high humidity, making it an excellent choice for warm indoor spaces.
What It’s Telling You:
• Happy Signs: Strong, upright stems with healthy green color.
• Needs TLC: Wrinkling? It’s thirsty. Yellowing? Ease up on watering. No blooms? It may need more light or a cooler nighttime temperature shift.
Good News for Pet Parents:
This plant is non-toxic to pets, making it a safe choice for homes with furry friends!
