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.
This plant will grow tall and need a support stake (such as bamboo poles), wood board, moss post, etc. Aerial roots will attach if you keep the support structure moist. Leaves will get bigger and bigger if you provide a good structure that the aerial roots can attach to.
Water when the top inch or two of the soil is dry.
Use a well-drained potting mix. Adding some perlite will be beneficial and improve drainage.
These are adaptable plants that grow quickly and thrive in average household conditions!
