Key Care Guidelines
- Light: Thrives in bright to medium indirect light. Avoid direct midday sun, which causes leaf scorch.
- Watering: Allow soil to dry out between waterings, usually every 10–15 days. Overwatering is the primary cause of decline.
- Soil & Potting: Use a well-draining mix, such as standard potting soil mixed with perlite. Ensure the pot has drainage holes.
- Temperature & Humidity: Thrives in Appreciates higher humidity; mist regularly or use a pebble tray
- Fertilizing: Feed monthly with a diluted, balanced liquid fertilizer during spring and summer.
- Pruning & Maintenance: Prune in spring to manage size or create a bushier shape. Regularly clean leaves with a damp cloth to remove dust.

Special Considerations for Stump Varieties
- Stump Care: The thick trunk stores water, making it drought-tolerant but susceptible to rot if overwatered.
- Braiding: New growth on top can be woven, but the main woody stump will not change shape.
- Repotting: Repot every 1–3 years in spring, choosing a pot only 1–2 inches larger in diameter to keep them slightly rootbound.
