To mimic their natural environment, try giving them a nice chunky soil mix to supply oxygen to their complex roots. Watering - This is a plant that requires very thorough watering but only when it has thoroughly dried out for a bit. Like most plants, the frequency of waterings will slow throughout the fall and winter, so make sure to check that the soil is nice and dry before giving it a good drink! Sunshine - This cultivar thrives in indirect lighting and does not require as much direct sun as its variegated siblings. If the light conditions are too low, the plant may start growing out more leggy (it will great more stalk space between new leaves).
