I don’t know about neem oil, but I regularly spray the leaves of mine when I clean it and they dry without issues

Yes, just make sure you dilute it according to the package directions

Mine was super sensitive when I sprayed it with homemade insecticidal soap and i ended up losing a bunch of leaves, so my recommendation is to dilute it a lot.

I have neem oiled mine a few times and it’s still going! Didn’t cause any visible damage to the plant
