Soil
Use a moisture-retentive, well-draining mix to keep this thirsty plant happy but not too soggy. Repot every three years if absolutely necessary; this plant is better potbound than drowning in soil.Food Feed every four waters in the growing season, reduce to every six in autumn and winter.
Temperature Temperature should ideally be between 16-30°C- make sure it doesn't drop below 10°C in winter.
