This species thrives in bright light—both full and partial sun. Water when the pot feels noticeably lighter, typically every 5–7 days, by submerging it up to the rim for 5–10 minutes and allowing it to drain well. Comfortable in temperatures between 55–80°F, it prefers to stay away from heaters or cold drafts. During warmer seasons, it can enjoy time outdoors in soft morning light.
