📝 Expert Advice
Use a loose, moisture-holding but well-draining mix (e.g. potting soil cut with perlite plus peat/coconut fibre and a little fine bark). The medium should be slightly acidic or neutral, never soggy, with excellent drainage and air circulation around the roots.
Feed lightly during active growth with a balanced, low-concentration liquid fertilizer; apply less often if light levels are low. Avoid overfeeding and salt build-up - periodically rinse the soil with clean water and reduce or stop fertilizing in winter/cold weather.
Remove wilted flower stems and damaged leaves. Pinch or lightly trim light shoots to encourage compact growth. Soft cuttings can be rooted in warm, humid conditions.
