&quot

Petra&quot

needs moist but well-drained soil that is rich in organic matter.

Prepare the garden bed by loosening the soil and working in 1/2 pound of 15-5-10 slow-release fertilizer.

Dig the fertilizer into the top 6 to 8 inches of soil.

Work in a 2- to 3-inch layer of compost if the soil isn't particularly rich or doesn't manage moisture well.

WATERING GUIDE: In order for the plant to absorb the water directly from the tray, place the plant pot within the tray and fill it with water.

When the soil dries out, perhaps once a week, do this.

The plant's leaves will perish if you water it directly from the top.

LIGHT REQUIREMENTS: Bright indoor light or indirect sun.

6 hours to 8 hours.

OPTIMAL TEMPERATURE: Keep the temperature between 18°C and 24°C.

Steer clear of draughts as they can cause unwanted temperature swings.

To keep your plant at the ideal humidity level, think about spraying it twice a week.

FERTILIZING: Feed every 2–4 weeks during spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertilizer.
