A real go-to guy. A larger plant with the potential to become a very large plant, this species is the gift that keeps on giving. They always seem to have a new leaf on the way, which makes them very rewarding. Plus they look great and are about as easy-going as plants get!

Plant Care

Position / Light:
This species requires plenty of indirect, bright light, although exposure to direct afternoon sunlight is best avoided, particularly during the summer months. If you do want to place this plant outside, make sure it’s in a partly shady spot to avoid sunburn on those big leaves.

Care / Water:
This plant fairs better than most during the occasional dry spell, but ideally you will want to water it generously whenever the top 3- 5cm of soil completely dries out, always allowing excess water to drain freely. When it's time, we recommend pulling it outside (or into the bath or shower), giving it a good drench, then leaving time for all the residual water to drain through. For this reason you should always keep this species in a pot with adequate drainage holes.
