Semi-sun to semi-shade.
Water with room-temperature water in the spring and summer. Allow the soil to dry slightly between waterings in the fall and winter.Mist often, especially during the winter or when the air is dry. Feed with a weak-concentration fertilizer when the plant is growing.
Grows well in soil or hydroculture.
