Temperature

Up to 40°C in summer and 0 to 15°C in winter. Tolerates light frosts.

Water

Use only rainwater, demineralized or reverse osmosis. Water that is too hard will cause the plant to die in a few weeks. Do not use bottled water, as it generally contains too much salt, which is harmful to the plant. In summer, place the plant in a large saucer with water. Autumn - winter: keep the substrate slightly moist by putting a little water in a saucer. Outside the growing season, be careful not to overwater!

In winter, if you can't leave it outside, place it in a cool room under artificial light.
