The contrasting colors of the leaves and stalk is striking and mine has been a very easy to maintain plant so far.

Maintenance Notes:- For optimal performance, keep at 60-85°F (15-29°C).
- Protect furniture when watering.
- Feed once per month at half strength when plant is actively growing.
- Like any aroid, this plant prefers chunky potting mixes that provide plenty of air circulation to the root system. Amending your all-purpose potting mix with perlite and orchid bark is one way to accomplish this.
- Water when the top 1-2 inches of potting mix feels dry. They don't want to be wet all the time, nor do they want to dry out completely.
- Bright indirect light is best, but early morning or late afternoon sun is beneficial. Sunny windows are particularly beneficial in the wintertime if you live in an area with shorter, dark days in the winter time.
