Care Guide

• Light: Bright, indirect light. Its dark leaves absorb light beautifully — but direct sun will bleach and scorch them.
• Water: Water when the top inch of soil is dry. Avoid waterlogging — well-draining soil and a pot with drainage holes are essential.
• Humidity: Loves high humidity (60%+). Mist regularly or use a humidifier to keep it thriving.
• Temperature: Prefers 65–85°F (18–29°C). Keep away from cold drafts and air conditioning vents.
• Soil: Chunky, well-draining aroid mix with perlite and bark to prevent root rot.
• Fertilizer: Feed every 2–4 weeks in spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertilizer. No feeding in fall/winter.
• Repotting: Every 1–2 years in spring, only when rootbound. Prefers snug pots.
• Dormancy: May go dormant in winter — reduce watering and stop fertilizing during this time.

⚠️ Toxicity Warning: Toxic to pets and humans if ingested. Keep out of reach of children and animals.
