Planting & Care

Select a container about 1.5 to 2 times the size of the shipped pot, transplant your plant, and water gently to settle the soil. Water approximately once weekly during growing seasons, adjusting frequency based on weather and soil moisture—simply check the top 2 inches of soil to determine if watering is needed. Feed monthly or every other month with a balanced houseplant fertilizer to keep your plant thriving and healthy.
