☀️Light
Needs: Bright, indirect light.
Best spot: Near an east or west-facing window with filtered sunlight.

🌡️ Temperature

💧 Watering
When to water: When the top 2–3 cm of soil feels dry.
Growing season (spring–summer): Every 7–10 days (depending on humidity).
Dormant season (winter): Reduce to every 2–3 weeks.
Tip: Avoid overwatering — yellowing leaves = too much water.
🌿 Humidity
Prefers: 60–80% humidity.
Boost humidity: Mist leaves regularly, use a pebble tray, or humidifier.
Variegated leaves can brown at the edges if air is too dry.
🌱 Soil
Best mix:
40% coco peat or potting soil
30% perlite or pumice
20% orchid bark
10% charcoal or compost
Must be loose, airy, and well-draining to prevent root rot.
🪴 Pot
Use a large pot with drainage holes.
Repot: Every 1–2 years in spring or when roots outgrow the pot.
Support: Add a moss pole or coir stick for climbing growth.
🌸 Fertilizer
Growing season: Apply a balanced liquid fertilizer (20-20-20) once a month.
Optional: Use a slow-release fertilizer for steady nutrition.
