Care & CultivationLight: Requires bright, indirect light. Direct sun will scorch and wash out the vibrant colors, while too little light causes the plant to become leggy.
Soil & Water: Plant in a well-draining, chunky aroid mix (containing perlite, orchid bark, and peat). Allow the top 2 inches of soil to dry out between waterings to prevent root rot.
Humidity & Temp: Thrives in ambient humidity of 65-75%. Keep temperatures between 65°F and 75°F, protecting it from cold drafts and keeping it above 50°F.Toxicity: Keep out of reach of pets and small children, as it is highly toxic if ingested.
