Watering: When the soil is completely dry (around 4-5 days

Sun: Indirect bright/moderate light.

Cleaning: Wipe leaves with a damp cloth every few weeks to keep foliage looking fresh.

Fertilizing: Apply a balanced liquid houseplant fertilizer at half strength once a month in spring and summer. Avoid fertilizing in winter when plants are semi-dormant.

If soil is dry 2 inches down, it’s time to water. Reduce frequency of watering during winter when plants are semi-dormant. Varieties with darker green leaves can tolerate dimmer conditions, while those with light or colorful variegation require brighter light to retain their colors and part. Avoid fertilizing in winter when plants are semi-dormant. Trim off brown, yellow, or damaged leaves back to the plant base using a pair of sterile clippers or scissors. Don’t remove live growth, as this can cause damage. Remove plants from their pots and replenish with fresh soil every 2 to 3 years, or whenever they appear overgrown or rootbound.
