🌞 Light & Placement

Prefers bright, indirect light but tolerates lower-light conditions. Avoid direct sun to prevent leaf scorch. Ideal for bathrooms, bedrooms, or shaded corners.

💧 Water & Humidity

Keep soil lightly moist, watering when the top layer feels dry. Loves humidity—regular misting or placement near a humidifier boosts growth. Avoid watering into the crown to prevent rot.

🪴 Soil & Potting

Plant in a well-draining, airy mix rich in organic matter. Orchid bark or coco coir blends work well. Repot every 1–2 years to refresh soil and encourage growth.

🐾 Toxicity & Safety

100% pet-safe—no harmful compounds for cats or dogs. A worry-free green companion for homes with furry friends.

🌱 Growth & Propagation

Grows slowly with a tight rosette form. Does not propagate via cuttings; instead, mature plants may produce small offsets or spores for advanced propagation.

📆 Seasonal & Special Care

Keep warm year-round; protect from cold drafts in winter. Boost humidity in dry seasons. Clean fronds gently with a damp cloth to keep them dust-free and radiant.

🐛 Common Issues

Watch for brown tips from low humidity or crispy leaves from overexposure to sun. Mealybugs or scale can occasionally appear—treat early with neem or insecticidal soap.
