Avoid windy areas, cut off folded stems use stakes and plexiglass stem holders to keep stems from flopping all over the place. Honestly these plants have become so rewarding once I figured out how to care for them!

omg beautiful!

i’ve learned the hard way that they like high humidity. i didn’t want to do the whole humidifier thing so i opted for a pebble tray instead.
