CARE GUIDE:
Light. This plant thrives in bright indirect light, welcoming morning or late afternoon direct sunlight while cautioning against harsh midday rays that can lead to leaf scorch. It's important to note that this plant doesn't fare well in low-light conditions.
Water. Hydrate when the soil is 50%-75% dry, ensuring a gradual watering process to allow absorption until it gently flows through the pot's drainage hole. Remember to discard any surplus water collected in the saucer to maintain optimal soil moisture levels.
Humidity. Your plant thrives in typical household humidity, it appreciates additional moisture from a pebble tray or a nearby humidifier.
Toxicity. Toxic to pets and humans.
Additional Care. Your plant is responsive to changes in its environment, particularly when relocating. If you need to shift your plant to a significantly different location, it's advisable to do so gradually to prevent sudden leaf drop. Exercise caution when pruning, as the plant may release a milky latex substance that is mildly toxic. In case of contact with the sap on your hands or skin, promptly wash with warm water and soap.
