Watering | Prefer well-draining, rich soil. A mix of equal parts peat moss, perlite, and regular potting soil works well. Make sure the soil is slightly acidic, with a pH around 5.5 to 6.5. |
Temperature | Prefer temperatures between 65°F to 85°F (18°C to 29°C). Avoid exposing them to temperatures below 60°F (15°C), as they are sensitive to cold. |
