Most climbing aroids are forgiving once given bright filtered light, an airy root zone, and room to climb.
Care guide
Bright indirect light. Direct sun: Gentle morning or late-day sun can be tolerated after acclimation.
Water after the upper portion begins drying; avoid keeping the root zone continuously wet.
Chunky, airy aroid mix with bark and mineral aeration.
Average to moderate household humidity works well.
A vertical textured support encourages mature leaf size and form.
