Bright light is essential. Prefers a sunny to partially shaded spot. The more light it receives, the more intense its golden-yellow colour becomes.
Keep the soil slightly moist. Do not let it dry out completely, but avoid waterlogged roots.
Ideal between 10–20 °C (50–68 °F). Prefers cooler conditions; avoid warm, dry air and frost.
Feed once a month during the growing season (spring and summer).
