Here is a summary of its care requirements Leea Burgundy :

  • Light: It grows best in bright, indirect light to light shade. Too much direct, hot sun can cause the foliage to become yellowish, while insufficient light may cause a loss of the vibrant leaf color.
  • Watering: During the growing season (spring through autumn), water liberally to maintain the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Ensure the pot has a drainage hole to prevent soggy soil, which can lead to root rot. Reduce watering in the cold season, keeping the soil slightly moist but never allowing it to completely dry out.
  • Temperature: It prefers moderate temperatures, ideally within the range of (about ) during the growing season. Keep it away from cold drafts, which can cause leaves to yellow and drop. The minimum allowable temperature is often cited around ().
  • Humidity: It has adapted to thrive with moderate moisture levels, and average room humidity is generally considered ideal. However, some sources suggest it benefits from regular misting or a pebble tray with water to maintain high humidity, especially in indoor environments.
  • Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix that is rich in organic matter. A mix of garden soil, compost, and perlite or sand works well.
  • Fertilizer (Feeding): Feed with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 3-4 weeks during the growing season (spring through autumn). Withhold feeding during the cold season when growth slows.
  • Pruning: Prune to maintain its shape, encourage bushier growth by pinching the growing tips, and remove any yellow or dead leaves.
  • Repotting: Repot a young plant annually into a pot two sizes larger at the beginning of the growing season. For mature plants, replacing the top layer of soil every 2-3 years may suffice.
