Give it enough light to keep variegation on foliage, don’t overwater, spray every 7 to 14 days with neem oil, give it a small pebble tray or humidifier to really see it go crazy in growth. I love mine

Oh and give it a grow light if you don’t have good bright indirect light situations.

they love bright indirect light. water when soil feels dry when sticking finger in. spray leaves w neem oil every 14 days. she is beautiful!!

Is the need oil because they are prone to pests or to keep it shiny? Or both?
