Plant Care Guide
☀️ Light: Bright, indirect light is ideal. Too much direct sun can scorch leaves, while low light may reduce color intensity.
💧 Water: Keep the central cup (rosette) filled with fresh water and change it weekly. Water soil lightly when the top inch feels dry. Do not let soil stay soggy.
🌫️ Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity. Thrives in warm rooms, kitchens, or near a humidifier.
📏 Size: Typically grows 12–18 inches tall, depending on variety.
🐾 Pet friendly?: ✅ Generally considered pet friendly
🪴 Where It Looks Best: Perfect for tabletops, shelves, desks, entryways, and minimalist or tropical interiors.
💡 Pro Tip: After blooming, the mother plant will slowly decline but produce pups at the base. These can be separated and grown into new plants.
