Care Requirements
- Light: It can thrive in east or west-facing windows or under high-output grow lights. [1, 2]
- Temperature: A cool to intermediate grower, it tolerates a minimum of 40°F (4.5°C) and a maximum of 95°F (35°C), but grows best in the moderate range of 65°F to 80°F (18°C to 27°C). [1, 2]
- Watering: Frequent moisture is crucial. Water 3 to 5 times per week to keep the substrate evenly moist. Do not allow it to dry out completely, though it should drain well enough to prevent rot. [1, 2]
- Humidity: Thrives in 65% to 80%+ humidity, requiring consistent, gentle air movement to avoid bacterial growth. [1, 2, 3, 4]
- Potting: Due to its creeping rhizome, it performs exceptionally well when mounted on cork slabs or tree fern, or grown in wider, shallower pots with a well-draining media like sphagnum moss or fine bark. [1, 2]
