Water
Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid waterlogging, as this can lead to root rot. Reduce watering frequency during the winter months when the plant's growth slows down.
Ensure good drainage in the pot.
Safety note: This plant may be toxic to humans and pets. See toxicity details.

Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid waterlogging, as this can lead to root rot. Reduce watering frequency during the winter months when the plant's growth slows down.
Ensure good drainage in the pot.
Prune to maintain desired shape and size, or to remove leggy or yellowing stems. Pinch back growing tips to encourage bushier growth.
Pruning can be done at any time of year, but is best done in spring before new growth begins.
Easily propagated from stem cuttings. Take cuttings of 10-15 cm with at least two nodes. Remove lower leaves and place the cut end in water or moist potting mix. Roots will typically form within a few weeks.
Repot when the plant becomes root-bound, typically every 2-3 years. Choose a pot that is one size larger than the current one. Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a blend for aroids. Repot in spring.
