Water every 1-2 weeks, allowing soil to dry out between waterings. Expect to water more often in brighter light and less often in lower light.'

Toxic to pets.

Sad Plant Signs

Wrinkling leaves, dry potting mix:Thirsty plant, underwatered

Mushy stems, wet potting mix:Root rot, overwatered

Hot Tip:

To prevent balding on the top of the plant, ensure that your plants soil is getting plenty of sunlight. This can also help prevent root rot as soil may take longer to dry out if it isn't seeing any sun.
