Care Notes
Grow in full sun, 6+ hours of direct sun per day; indoors a south or west facing window with bright direct light is best. Prefers warm to average household temperatures, 65°-85°F. Keep soil evenly moist to slightly dry. Supply extra humidity by setting on a shallow tray of moistened pebbles over winter. Feed with Osmocote or Miracle-Gro April-October. After a few fall frosts, prune heavily, back to green leaf nodes, and bring indoors for winter.
