For no fuss or mess you can put the plant in the growing pot it arrives in straight inside a decorative one. This also allows allows excess water to be drained after watering.

For a good fit the opening (not diameter) and height of the new decorative pot need to be several centimetres greater than the current growing pot.

Prefers temperatures between 18–27°C. Keep away from cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.

Feeding

Fertilise once a month during spring and summer with a balanced, diluted liquid fertiliser. Do not fertilise in autumn and winter when growth slows.
