☀️ Light

• Thrives in bright, indirect light

• Variegation stays strongest with good light

• Avoid direct sun — yellow areas burn quickly

💧 Water

• Keep soil lightly moist, letting the top 2–3 cm dry between waterings

• Use an airy, well-draining mix (bark + perlite + coco coir)

• Never let it sit in soggy soil — roots are sensitive

🌫️ Humidity

• Prefers moderate to high humidity (60–80%)

• Great near a humidifier or in a plant cluster

• Dry air may cause crispy tips on golden sections

🌡️ Temperature

• Loves warmth: 20–28°C

• Keep away from drafts and cold windows

• Avoid temps below 16°C

🍽️ Feeding

• Feed every 4–6 weeks in spring and summer

• Use a gentle, diluted aroid fertilizer

• Pause feeding in winter

🌱 Quick Tips

• Perfect for small shelves, desks, or plant cabinets

• Rotate regularly for even variegation

• Not pet-safe — keep out of reach of cats and dogs
