Care Guide

☀ Light

Provide bright, indirect sunlight for healthy foliage and regular flowering. A few hours of gentle morning sunlight can encourage better blooms, while avoiding prolonged harsh afternoon sun.

💧 Watering

Allow the growing medium to dry slightly between waterings. Water thoroughly, but avoid keeping the roots constantly wet, as excessive moisture may lead to root problems.

🌡 Temperature

Prefers warm temperatures with good airflow. Protect the plant from frost and sudden temperature fluctuations.

💦 Humidity

Enjoys moderate to high humidity. Higher humidity encourages healthier foliage and supports abundant flowering.

🌿 Fertilizing

Feed with a balanced water-soluble fertilizer during the active growing season to encourage vigorous growth and abundant flower production.

✂ Maintenance

Minimal maintenance is required. Remove only dried or damaged leaves. Avoid cutting old flower spurs (peduncles), as new blooms often emerge from the same location.
