Your care routine
Watering
Allow the upper 2–3 cm to dry before watering thoroughly and draining; fleshy leaves and stems are vulnerable to overwatering.
Soil & drainage
Free-draining indoor potting mix with perlite; use a pot with drainage holes.
Fertilizer
Use a complete liquid houseplant fertilizer about monthly while actively growing in spring and summer, at the product label rate. Pause in dim winter conditions or whenever growth stops; do not feed a dry or stressed plant.
Temperature
Keep in a stable, frost-free room, usually about 18–26°C, away from cold drafts and heating vents.
Humidity
40–60% is a useful indoor target; keep clear of heating vents.
Through the seasons
During darker Vancouver autumn and winter days, check soil moisture before watering and reduce feeding as growth slows. Acclimatize plants gradually to stronger spring light.
When your plant needs help
- Yellow leaves with persistently wet compost can indicate root stress.
- Fine stippling or webbing can indicate spider mites; inspect leaf undersides.
