Humidity: 

  • Average household humidity is fine

Soil Type: 

  • Needs a balanced mix that is moisture retentive but also well draining 
  • Not very picky - most indoor blends will suffice 

Toxicity Level: 

  • Toxic to animals 

Additional Information:

  • The brighter the light conditions, the more it will flower!
