### Gecko commented on 2026-09-21

Thats beautiful. Please share ALL your info on care for this plant. Mine is tall leggy and bleached from grow lights

Hi Brittany - I pretty much follow the app for watering and fertilizing. I’m using Miracle-Gro because my mom left me a lot of it. I’ll eventually switch to something else. She is in a North facing window and our house is usually in the low 70’s year ‘round. We get a few hot summer days but it never gets below 65 inside.

#### Gecko replied on 2026-09-22

What part of country are you in. Im in canada and thought north window would not be enough light. What do you use for soil?

#### AnneF replied on 2026-09-22

I’m in Northern California, about 100 miles north of San Francisco. It’s just regular potting soil (I repotted her earlier this year to a slightly larger pot)

Thanks

I forgot to add that we are on a spring so the water has no added chemicals
