Plant Care Tips:
☀️ Light: Loves bright, indirect light. Too much sun may fade the colors; too little can make it leggy.
💧 Water: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top of the soil starts to dry.
🌱 Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix. A peat-based mix with perlite is ideal.
🌡 Temperature: Enjoys warm temps between 65°F - 80°F (18°C - 27°C). Avoid cold drafts.
🧰 Maintenance: Pinch back regularly to maintain a bushy shape and prevent stretching.
