Light: Bright, indirect light. Does best near a sunny window with protection from harsh afternoon sun.
Water: Water thoroughly when the top 1–2 inches of soil feel dry. Let excess water drain; never leave it sitting in water.
Size: Commonly reaches 6–10 feet indoors, but pruning can keep it smaller.
Temperature: Prefers 65–80°F. Keep away from cold drafts and heating or air-conditioning vents.
Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix and a container with drainage holes.
Feeding: Fertilize lightly during spring and summer.
Leaf drop: Often drops leaves after being moved or when light, watering, or temperature changes. Keep its location and care consistent.
Maintenance: Prune to shape and wipe leaves clean. Watch for spider mites, scale, and mealybugs.
Pet safety: Toxic to cats and dogs if chewed; its milky sap can also irritate skin.
