Care at a glance

Water: Water thoroughly when the top two inches of soil are dry. Ensure good drainage and do not let the plant sit in standing water to prevent root rot.

Humidity: Thrives in high humidity, so consider a pebble tray or humidifier.
Temperature: Maintain temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C).
Soil: Use a well-draining, airy potting mix, ideally something marketed for aroids.
Fertilizer: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength every 2-4 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).
Toxicity: Toxic to pets and humans if ingested, causing oral irritation and digestive upset.
Propagation: Easily propagated through stem cuttings in water or moist soil. Ensure each cutting has at least one node.
