Light
The best place to put these plants is in a location that receives filtered light because they can’t survive direct sunlight. The leaves can be burned, turning brown or yellow. Like other tropical rare houseplant, they prefers bright, indirect light.
Soil
Well-drained soil with rich organic matter is their favorite soil. Perlite or sand can help the drainage. You can use pine bark as an organic fertilizer on them. In our nursery, we use sphagnum moss for the soil.
Watering
Watering these plants can be done easily, you don’t need to water them every day because it can make them overwater. You can water them about once a week. In winter, you only need to water them once a month. Just wait until the top of the soil dries.
Humidity and Temperature
Their natural habitat is in tropical areas with high humidity and warm temperatures. You can put them in a warm place around 60–75 °F (16–24 °C). If your place is too dry for them, you can mist the plant regularly or get a humidifier nearby. It will help them thrive.
