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
Use a loose, freely draining houseplant mix with perlite or fine bark, in a pot with drainage holes.
Fertilizer
During active spring and summer growth, use a balanced houseplant fertilizer at the label rate. Reduce or stop feeding when growth slows; never fertilize a dry or stressed root ball.
Temperature
Aim for 18–26°C indoors; protect from cold drafts and sudden changes in temperature.
Humidity
40–60% is a useful indoor target; keep clear of heating vents.
Through the seasons
During darker Metro Vancouver autumn and winter days, check moisture before watering and lengthen the interval as growth slows. Reassess daylight in spring and repot only if roots crowd the container.
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.
