🌞 Light & Placement
Thrives in bright, indirect light and can tolerate some direct sun. Place near a south or west-facing window with space to grow upward and outward.
💧 Water & Humidity
Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil feels dry. Keep soil slightly moist during spring/summer and reduce watering in winter. Appreciates higher humidity—mist occasionally or use a humidifier.
🪴 Soil & Potting
Use a rich, well-draining mix—ideal blend includes potting soil, compost, and perlite. Repot every 2–3 years or when root-bound.
🐾 Toxicity & Safety
Mildly toxic if ingested. Keep away from pets and small children.
🌱 Growth & Propagation
Moderate grower with upright, fan-like form. Can be propagated through division; ensure each section has roots and a growth point.
📆 Seasonal & Special Care
Fertilize monthly during spring and summer with a balanced liquid feed. Reduce feeding in cooler months. Best kept between 18°C–25°C for strong growth.
🐛 Common Issues
Generally resilient. Look out for spider mites and mealybugs. Yellow leaves can signal overwatering or low light—adjust care as needed.
🧬 Botanical Background

Very interesting white leaves
Very interesting white leaves. Came with some yellowish ones probably from travelling. I can understand that plants with rare colours on their leaves may be more complicated to remain as received.
