I had mine directly in a west facing window, it was too much sun and I almost killed it. I moved it 30cm back from the same window and it’s loving life. I also have sheer drapes I close on those super intense sun days.

Hope that helps a little bit!

Dappled morning sun ok. But no prolonged direct sun. Bright indirect best.

You really just don’t want the soil staying wet, that’s what will kill/ rot them as well as rot the ones on top! So make sure the sun will help dry it and that it doesn’t stay wet for extended periods of time!
