Care Essentials
Get to Know Your Pink Princess
Light is everything for this plant. Get the placement right and everything else falls into place.
Light
bright indirect
Wants bright, indirect light — sensitive to both extremes. Too much direct sun causes burns, too little causes stretching.
💡 Grow lights: Thrives under artificial grow lights (LED or fluorescent, 10-12 hours/day). A great option if your space lacks natural light.
Watering
every 7-10 days
Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil feel dry. Adjust with the seasons — less in winter, more in summer.
Humidity & Temperature
Loves higher humidity (60%+). If your air is dry, group it with other plants, use a pebble tray, or run a humidifier nearby.
Standard room temperature (60-80°F / 15-27°C) is perfect. Avoid cold drafts and sudden temperature swings.
Soil
Standard well-draining potting mix works well. Add perlite for extra drainage if you tend to overwater.
