1. Lighting: It likes a semi-shady environment, is intolerant of strong light, and cannot be exposed to the sun. During normal maintenance, you can place it in a place with astigmatism and get more sun. In summer, it should be blocked or avoided in time when strong light is strong.

When the temperature drops in autumn and winter, the frequency should be reduced and the soil should be slightly moist. Do not overwater in early spring to avoid root rot. In addition, pay attention to controlling watering during the flowering period, and do not water until it dries out.

3. Temperature: It neither tolerates low temperatures nor High temperature resistance. So pay more attention to the temperature. Move the low temperature indoors as early as possible in winter, and ventilate the room when it is high in summer, block the light in time, and sprinkle water frequently to cool down.
