How to Care for the Plant

Water
Water Use: Medium. Be weary of overwatering with this plant as it can be prone to root rot. The key signs of overwatering are yellowing or mushy stalks or leaves. If you find this occurring then it’s best to let the soil dry out completely before watering again, and to follow careful watering patterns going forward.
Fertilizer
For best results, feed with slow-release pellets or liquid fertilizer twice a year, at the beginning and end of its growing season.
Sunlight
Full sun, partial shade.
