Care Instructions:

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light – avoid direct sun to protect foliage

• Watering: Water when the top 2–4cm of soil is dry – keep evenly moist, not wet

• Humidity: Requires high humidity (60–80%) – use a humidifier or greenhouse cabinet

• Soil: Use a chunky, well-draining aroid mix (orchid bark, sphagnum, perlite, charcoal)

• Feeding: Fertilise every 4–6 weeks in spring/summer with a calcium-rich or foliage-focused feed

• Temperature: Loves warmth (18–26°C) – avoid cold, dry air or sudden changes

• Growth Tip: Best grown in a stable environment with gentle airflow – leaf edges can crisp in low humidity

🌿 Tip: Clean leaves gently with a damp cloth to maintain that signature velvet sheen.
