Culture
This plant requires 8 to 10 hours of light per day that is indirect or filtered and requires a minimal temperature of 12ºC (55ºF) during winter.
During winter allow the pot to become drier before watering, as soggy soil will cause rot. During summer only mist the leaves to maintain humidity.
Re-pot or divide during spring only when necessary in to a slightly larger pot.
