☀️ Light

• Thrives in bright, indirect light
• Needs strong filtered light to maintain vibrant white variegation
• Avoid direct sun — white areas can scorch and textured leaves can mark easily
• Too little light may reduce variegation and slow growth

💧 Water

• Keep soil lightly moist, but never soggy
• Allow the top layer of soil to dry slightly between waterings
• Use a chunky, well-draining aroid mix
• Excellent drainage is essential to prevent root rot

🌫️ Humidity

• Prefers high humidity (65–85%)
• Higher humidity encourages healthy foliage and smooth unfurling
• Warm, stable temperatures produce the best growth
• Avoid cold draughts and sudden temperature changes

🍽️ Feeding

• Feed every 2–4 weeks during active growth
• Use a balanced diluted liquid fertiliser
• Reduce feeding during cooler months or dormancy

🌱 Quick Tips

• Variegated plants naturally grow more slowly than green forms
• Ideal for display cabinets or warm, humid rooms
• Chunky, airy substrate promotes healthy root development
• May become dormant during cooler months—reduce watering if growth slows
