Rich, humus-heavy loam with high water retention but excellent drainage; peat moss based mixes work well
Keep soil consistently moist; do not allow drying out. Increase humidity via misting or pebble trays in summer
Prefers partial to full shade; direct sun scorches leaves and causes rapid dehydration
Apply balanced liquid fertilizer monthly during growing season (April-Sept); reduce in winter dormancy
Remove spent flower heads to encourage longevity; cut back foliage after first frost if grown outdoors
