Grow in bright, indirect light away from the glare of direct sun. Requires a frost free position in a cool room or conservatory, with a temperature between 15-24?C.

In winter, reduce watering but do not allow the compost to dry out completely. House plants should be fed regularly between March and September when they are in active growth.
