Care Guide:

Light Requirements:

• Thrives in bright, indirect light, but also tolerates low light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, which may scorch the leaves.

Watering:

• Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil feels dry. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so allow excess water to drain properly.
• If grown in water, change the water every 1-2 weeks to keep it fresh and oxygenated.

Humidity & Temperature:

• Tolerates moderate to high humidity but adjusts well to normal indoor humidity.
• Temperature: 65-85°F (18-29°C). Avoid cold drafts and direct air-conditioning.

Soil & Potting:

• Thrives in well-draining soil, such as a mix of garden soil, peat moss, and perlite.
• Repot every 1-2 years or when roots outgrow the pot.

Fertilizing:

• Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer once a month during the growing season (spring & summer). Decrease feeding in fall and winter.

Pruning & Maintenance:

• Trim long vines to encourage bushier growth and keep your plant’s shape in check.
• Occasionally wipe leaves with a damp cloth to remove dust and help increase photosynthesis

Propagation:

• Easily propagated by stem cuttings placed in water or soil. Cut a vine with at least one node and let it develop roots before transplanting.

Common Issues & Solutions:

• Yellowing Leaves – Overwatering or poor drainage. Let the soil dry slightly between waterings.
• Brown Leaf Tips – Low humidity or underwatering. Increase watering and mist the plant occasionally.
• Leggy Growth – It requires less light. Transplant to a brighter location to promote more foliage.
• Pests – Spider mites, aphids or mealybugs should be checked. If necessary, neem oil or insecticidal soap can be applied.
