🌿 Plant Care Instructions

• ☀️ Light: Prefers bright, indirect sunlight to maintain its beautiful silver and purple coloring. Avoid harsh direct sunlight, which can scorch its delicate foliage.

• 💧 Water: Keep soil evenly moist but never soggy. Water when the top inch of soil begins to feel dry, allowing excess water to drain completely.

• 🌡️ Temperature: Thrives in warm temperatures between 65–85°F. Protect from cold drafts and temperatures below 60°F.

• 💦 Humidity: Loves high humidity! A humidifier or naturally humid environment helps prevent crispy leaf edges and keeps its foliage looking lush.

• 🪴 Soil: Use a rich, well-draining tropical potting mix that retains some moisture while allowing excess water to escape.

• 🌱 Fertilizer: Feed with a diluted, balanced houseplant fertilizer once a month during spring and summer.

• ✂️ Pruning: Trim longer vines occasionally to encourage fuller, bushier growth. Remove damaged or yellowing leaves as needed.

• 🌿 Trailing & Climbing: Allow its beautiful vines to cascade naturally from the hanging basket, or provide a trellis if you prefer an upright, climbing appearance.
