  • Growth Habit: Can grow up to six feet tall, creating a lush and tropical atmosphere in your home.

Care Requirements:

  • Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent leaf scorch.
  • Watering: Maintain consistent moisture, ensuring the top 3 cm of soil feels dry before watering. Avoid waterlogging to prevent root rot.
  • Humidity: Prefers high humidity levels; consider using a humidifier or placing the plant on a tray filled with water and pebbles to increase ambient moisture.
