Care Instructions:

• Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light – avoids direct sun, but needs good light for variegation

• Feeding: Feed every 4–6 weeks during the growing season with a balanced liquid fertiliser

🌿 Tip: To maintain strong variegation, place in a bright spot and rotate the plant regularly.
