🔖 Care Tips

If a plant is dry, sticky liquid may appear on young leaves. Increase humidity and wipe off any marks on the leaves to prevent pests. Guttation is a natural phenomenon often seen in tropical plants, occurring mainly at night when the plant releases excess water. Be careful not to overwater. Large leaves can accumulate dust, so clean them regularly.

🏝️ Habitat Conditions

This plant grows around large trees in the tropical rainforests of South America. It prefers warm and humid environments and thrives best in indirect light rather than direct sunlight.

🪨 Soil Mix

When planting, it's best to use soil that retains moisture well and allows for good air circulation. Typically, mix 30% potting soil, 30% perlite, 35% bark, and 5% humus. However, you can adjust the proportions based on the situation and environment.

🌡️ Environment

This plant prefers temperatures between 20-30°C and should be kept above 10°C in winter. It thrives in humidity levels of 50-80% and enjoys a humid environment. To increase humidity when it's dry, mist the plant or place a bowl of water nearby. Ensure good air circulation when humidity is high to prevent mold growth. In dry indoor conditions, roots may not grow well, so it's okay to remove them.

☀️ Light

Plants prefer indirect light over direct sunlight. They tend to grow towards the light, so rotating the pot periodically helps them grow evenly.

💧 Water

Water the plant when the surface soil is dry to avoid overwatering.

🌱 Propagate

Use sterilized tools to cut a branch with at least one node at an angle. Let it dry for 3-4 hours, then place it in soil or water for propagation. 1. For water propagation, avoid transparent containers. Place the stem in water, and once roots appear, use hydroponic fertilizer. When roots are 5-7 cm long, transfer to soil. 2. For soil propagation, plant deeply in soil without fertilizer. After planting, avoid exposing to bright light. Gradually increase light exposure to help the plant adapt. Maintain high humidity and a temperature of 20-25°C.

🪴 Repot

Repot every 1-2 years in spring due to its relatively fast growth.

💊 Fertilize

Apply fertilizer 2-3 times during spring and summer, following the recommended dosage for more vigorous growth. You may adjust the amount based on the plant's size and light exposure. Avoid fertilizing immediately after repotting; wait 2-4 weeks before applying fertilizer.

😵 Toxicity

Be cautious with pets and young children as it is toxic.
