With a climbing growth habit and aerial roots, it creates a dramatic, luxurious accent in any plant collection.

Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light; avoid direct sunlight to prevent leaf burn
Water: Water when the top inch of soil feels dry; avoid overly saturated soil
Pet-Friendly: No, toxic if ingested
Humidity: Prefers high humidity to maintain leaf vibrancy; ideal for bathrooms or use with a humidifier
Care Level: Intermediate; ideal for plant enthusiasts familiar with humidity and light
This plant is toxic to pets and humans—please place accordingly and handle with care.
