- Using a diluted liquid feed with a 1:1 ratio, you can feed the plant once a month.
LIGHT REQUIREMENT

- At home or in your garden, display them in an area protected from direct sunlight, as this will harm the plant.

- To avoid overwatering at home, allow the growing medium to become dry between waterings, and only water when the fertile green leaves start to droop.
