☀️ Light

💧 Water

• Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil are dry

• Keep soil lightly moist, but never soggy

• Use a well-draining aroid mix (soil + perlite + bark)

• Drooping = thirsty

• Yellowing leaves = too much water

🌫️ Humidity

• Prefers high humidity (60–80%)

• Helps maintain crisp leaf pattern

• Dry air may cause brown edges

🌡️ Temperature

• Ideal range: 18–28°C

• Sensitive to cold — never below 15°C

• Avoid drafts and AC vents

🍽️ Feeding

• Feed every 4–6 weeks in spring and summer

• Use a diluted, gentle fertilizer

• No feeding needed in winter

🌱 Growth Tips

• Naturally compact and slow-growing
