[Management method]
《Placement》
Keep it in a sunny, well-ventilated place.
If there is not enough light, the plant will become elongated and stretched out. If this happens, move it to a brighter location.

The sun is strong in the summer, so try not to expose it to direct sunlight. It is safer to expose it to sunlight through lace curtains.
Once the weather gets warmer, you can keep it outside (in a place where it won't get rained on) from spring to autumn.

In winter, it is generally safe to keep it in a place where the temperature can be maintained above 15°C. When it gets cold, even if you keep it indoors, keep it away from places where it is exposed to outside air, such as near a window. The entrance is also a place where outside air can easily enter, so it is recommended to move it to the living room or somewhere similar.

Watering
This plant does not like high humidity. When the surface of the soil starts to dry, water it until water comes out from the bottom of the pot. The frequency of watering will vary depending on the season and environment, so if you move the plant to a different location, we recommend observing how long it takes for the soil to dry after watering.
Growth slows significantly in midsummer and winter, and the plant will not absorb water as quickly. Be careful of root rot, and reduce the frequency of watering.

"fertilizer"
Generally, it's okay not to give it too much water. If you give it too much water, it will wither and die.
If you do fertilize, apply a light, slow-release fertilizer in early spring or in early autumn after the heat has subsided.
