Don’t overwater your plant. Wait until the soil’s dried out before watering your plant. If you notice the soil’s too wet, drain it to prevent the roots from rotting. Similarly, avoid the leaves when giving your plant a drink. Watering directly into the soil will keep it happy and healthy.

You should also keep your plant away from draughts to prevent excessive moisture loss and your plant drying out too quickly. Always avoid direct sunlight. Too much sun will cause the leave’s colours and patterns to fade. It also risks the leaves scorching and dying. While it tolerates low light levels, it does need an element of light to survive.
