Plant Care Guide
☀️ Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sun to prevent leaf burn.
💧 Water: Keep the soil lightly moist. Water when the top inch is dry, and avoid waterlogging.
🌫️ Humidity: Loves humidity. Use a pebble tray or mist to avoid crispy edges.
📏 Size: Can grow up to 2–3 feet tall indoors with time and proper care.
🐾 Pet-friendly?: ❌ Not pet-friendly (toxic if ingested).
🪴 Where It Looks Best: Perfect for bright shelves, plant walls, or decorative stands with good airflow.
💡 Pro Tip: Rotate your plant regularly for even growth, and trim any leggy stems to encourage bushiness.
