Ben's care tips:
• We recommend keeping the cutting in moist sphagnum moss until it has rooted. Then it can be potted in the soil recommended under the point substrate.
• Location/light requirements: partially shaded to bright with no direct sunlight
• Substrate: Ben's Premium Sphagnum Moss, Ben's Syngonium & Alocasia Soil, Special Soil
• Temperature: optimal at 24-26°C (day), 15-18°C (night), do not allow to cool below 10°C
• Watering: in spring/summer, water about every 10 days when the upper substrate layer begins to dry, with lukewarm water that is low in lime, but avoid waterlogging. Water less in autumn/winter.
• Humidity: needs high humidity, place in the bathroom or spray regularly (leaves should be allowed to dry afterwards!)
• Nutrient addition: In spring/summer only moderately every 4-6 weeks with liquid fertiliser.
• Avoid dry heating air.
• Pay attention to even watering, because the plant doesn't like waterlogging or complete drying out
