Water: Diluted water every 3-4 days. These tropical plants like to stay moist but do not want to soak. Therefore, we recommend checking that the top soil is dry every 3-4 days. When watering, add one cup of water to the plant and let it drain completely so it does not sit in water.

Misting: Frequent. These tropical plants enjoy humidity. You can mist them as often as you like to offer a more humid environment.

Fertilizer: Once a month. Add 1:1:1 fertilizer to the water once a month to give a boost of nutrients.
