Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top 2-3 cm of soil to dry out between waterings. Reduce watering frequency during the cooler winter months to prevent root rot.

Ensure good drainage to avoid soggy conditions.

Prune to maintain shape, remove yellowing or dead leaves, and control size. Use clean, sharp pruning shears. Pruning can also encourage bushier growth.

Remove aerial roots if they become unruly or are not anchoring the plant effectively.

Propagate by stem cuttings, ensuring each cutting has at least one node. Root cuttings in water or moist potting mix. Once roots have developed, transplant into a pot.

This method is best done during the active growing season.

Repot every 2-3 years or when the plant becomes root-bound, typically in spring. Choose a pot that is 2-5 cm larger in diameter than the current one. Use a well-draining potting mix suitable for aroids.
