in stock - arrives before Christmas
- Position: light shade
- Soil: good potting compost

- Current height: approximately 70cm (including pot)

Please note that the pot in the photograph is not supplied with the plant (which is sent out in a black plastic pot).

Water less in winter. Mist the leaves with water regularly and maintain temperatures above 15°C. Repot every few years in spring.
