Best spotBy a large window
Care levelModerate
Where to put it
It needs space and height: a double-height entrance or a living room beside a large window. With the vase it stands well over two metres.
Light
As bright as you can give it indoors. A few hours of soft direct sun are welcome.
Watering
Water when the top 4 to 5 cm of soil is dry, a little more often in summer. It drinks more than the others because of its size.
Feeding
Liquid feed every two to three weeks in spring and summer.
If something looks wrong
- Split leaves. Completely normal. The leaves split naturally as they mature.
- Curling leaves. Thirsty or too dry. Water and mist the leaves.
- Brown edges. Dry air from the AC. Move it away from the vent.
Pets: Not safe for cats and dogs if chewed.
