Care & Cultivation

Light: Prefers medium to bright, indirect light. Enhanced brightness intensifies cream-white variegation; tolerates lower light with slightly slower growth.

Fertilizer: Feed every 4–6 weeks in spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertilizer (e.g., 20-20-20 NPK).

Pruning: Trim back leggy growth and remove any discolored foliage to maintain compact form.

Propagation: Root 4–6″ stem cuttings in water or directly into moist substrate; new roots appear within 2–3 weeks.

Pests & Problems: Monitor for mealybugs, spider mites, and scale. Wipe leaves with insecticidal soap at first signs of infestation.
