🌱 Care Tips:

Light:
Prefers bright, indirect light for healthy and compact growth. It can tolerate medium light but may become slightly leggy in lower light conditions. Avoid harsh direct sunlight.

Water:

Temperature:
Thrives in temperatures between 18°C to 26°C. Protect from cold drafts and temperatures below 12°C.

Soil:
Use a light, well-draining potting mix. Adding perlite helps improve drainage and root health.

Fertiliser:
Feed every 4–6 weeks during spring and summer with a diluted balanced fertiliser to support growth.

Growth Habit:
A fast-growing trailing plant that can cascade beautifully from shelves, hanging planters, or decorative pots.
