Care Requirements

Below, you’ll find key tips tailored to this species’ requirements. Whether you’re new to plant care or have plenty of experience, these guidelines are here to support you in keeping your green companion healthy and vibrant.

  1. Planting:
    • Choose a location with full sun to partial shade. Ensure ample space for the plant's mature height and spread.
    • Use a pot with drainage holes if growing indoors or in containers.
    • For outdoor planting, improve soil drainage by mixing in sand or gravel if necessary.
  2. Watering:
    • Water infrequently, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings.
    • Overwatering can lead to root rot; ensure proper drainage to prevent waterlogged conditions.
    • Reduce watering during winter or dormant periods.
  3. Pruning:
    • Remove any dead or damaged leaves to maintain the plant’s health and appearance.
    • Prune off spent flower spikes after blooming to keep the plant tidy and encourage new growth.
  4. Fertilizing:
    • Feed with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer once or twice during the growing season (spring and summer).
    • Avoid over-fertilizing, which can lead to excessive foliage growth and reduced flowering.
  5. Pest and Disease Control:
    • Monitor for common pests such as spider mites, mealybugs, and scale insects.
    • Treat infestations with insecticidal soap or horticultural oil as needed.
    • Ensure good air circulation around the plant to prevent fungal diseases.
