Peat-based mix with perlite for drainage, keep consistently moist but not waterlogged
Keep soil evenly moist. Water at base to avoid wetting foliage which can cause rot or mildew. Reduce watering after flowering.
Bright indirect light only; direct sun scorches leaves and flowers. Protect from heat sources.
Apply balanced liquid fertilizer diluted by half monthly during active growth (Spring-Fall). Stop fertilizing in winter dormancy.
Remove spent flowers and yellowing leaves promptly to encourage new growth and prevent disease.
