Origin: South America
Sunlight: I much prefer bright, indirect light and can deal with periods of direct sun too, but over time my leaves may become scorched and end up with browning on my tips. I also don’t mind shaded areas, however this will slow my growth and end up with a lighter leaf colour.
Temperature: Overall I’m very adaptable to my surroundings, so a difference in room temperatures over the course of the year I’ll be fine with. I even don’t mind the cooler winter temperatures.
Growth: I’m not the fastest of growers, I can still grow up to 2 metres indoors though.
Toxicity: Best to keep me out of reach children and pets.
Watering: Water me regularly during the spring and summer growing season, making sure to fully drain excess so that I don’t stand in water.
Allow top few inches of my soil to dry out between watering. This can be checked using your finger.
Feed: It’s not necessary to feed me with any fertilizer, however a diluted dose over the spring and summer months will help boost new growth.
