🌱 Care Tips:

Light:
Prefers bright, indirect light. Can handle some morning sun but should be protected from intense afternoon rays that can scorch the delicate fronds.

Water:
Keep soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top 1–2 cm of soil feels dry. Do not let it dry out completely.

Humidity:
Loves high humidity! Ideal for bathrooms, kitchens, or grouped with other plants. Use a humidifier or mist regularly to prevent leaf browning.

Temperature:
Best grown in 16°C to 24°C (60°F–75°F). Avoid cold drafts and protect from frost or extreme heat.

Soil:
Needs a well-draining, rich potting mix. A peat-based mix with added perlite or compost works beautifully.

Fertiliser:
Feed monthly during spring and summer with a diluted, balanced liquid fertiliser. Skip feeding in winter.

Pet Friendly:
✅ Non-toxic to pets and humans. A safe, stylish choice for homes with curious animals or little ones.
