Light

  • Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain variegation.
  • Can tolerate low light, but variegation may fade.
  • Avoid direct sun, as it can scorch the leaves.

💧 Watering

  • Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil are dry.
  • Keep soil slightly moist, but avoid overwatering.
  • Reduce watering in winter when growth slows.

🌱 Soil

  • Use well-draining potting mix (a mix of peat, perlite, and orchid bark is ideal).
  • Ensure the pot has drainage holes to prevent root rot.

🌡️ Temperature & Humidity

  • Thrives in 65–80°F (18–27°C).
  • Avoid temperatures below 50°F (10°C).
  • Prefers moderate to high humidity; misting occasionally can help.

🌿 Fertilizing

  • Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks in spring and summer.
  • No need to fertilize in winter.

✂️ Pruning & Propagation

  • Trim leggy vines to encourage bushier growth.
  • Propagate easily through stem cuttings in water or soil.

🪴 Support & Growth
