✔ Tolerates low light, dry air, and inconsistent watering
✔ Can grow 30cm to 1 metre tall, depending on variety
Care Instructions:

Light: Happy in low to bright indirect light – avoid harsh direct sun
-
Watering: Water sparingly – allow soil to dry out fully between waterings

-
Pruning: Remove damaged or old leaves at the base
