CARE:

• This plant does fine with varied light (bright, indirect-low light). 
• It can benefit from a few hours of morning sun, but avoid prolonged exposure to the afternoon sun during the summer, as this can quickly scorch the plant. 
• Keep the soil slightly moist but not soaked.
• It does best with a chunky bark-based potting media. 
• It does best with moderate-high humidity. 
• Protect from drafts
• When watering, ensure that water does not pool into the centre since this portion of the plant acts like a cradle for the water, potentially causing the plant to rot. Tip it upside down and shake it before returning it to its spot.
