Here's how to care for this beautiful plant:

- Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy.
- Allow the top inch of soil to dry out slightly between waterings to prevent root rot.

- Reduce feeding during the fall and winter months when growth slows.
7. **Pruning and Maintenance** ✂️:

- Clean the leaves gently with a damp cloth to enhance their beauty and allow them to photosynthesize effectively.
8. **Repotting** 🪴:
