Keep soil consistently moist during active growth. Reduce watering significantly during dormancy (winter) to prevent rhizome rot
Requires bright indirect light for blooming; tolerate morning sun but protect from harsh afternoon rays to prevent leaf scorch
Apply balanced liquid fertilizer every 2 weeks during growing season; reduce in winter. Avoid high nitrogen which favors leaves over flowers
Remove spent flower stalks at the base and yellowing leaves promptly to encourage energy for new growth
