Care advice and additional information
Water - In growing season keep the soil moist, not allowing it to dry out and you will be treated with faster growth. Although it won’t react too badly if you forget to water it now and again! Slow down watering in the winter months. It will also tolerate standard household levels of humidity but enjoys a regular misting. Prone to root rot so don’t allow it to sit in water for long periods of time.
Sunlight - Bright but filtered light will ensure growth while darker environments will cause slow growth and small, low growing leaves.
Feeding - Fertilise once a month during Spring and Summer.
Toxicity - Toxic for both humans and pets due to levels of calcium oxalate crystals.
Packaging
All plants will be come in a plastic nursery pot, wrapped in Kraft compostable paper with twine and include a care card and a seeded paper thank you tag.
