What kind of light does the plant need?

Bright, indirect light is ideal. Avoid direct sunlight.

What type of soil is best?

Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a cactus or succulent mix.

How do I know if I'm overwatering?

Yellowing or browning leaves are common signs. Check the soil moisture and allow it to dry out.

Can I put it in a dark room?

It is not recommended, as the plant needs at least bright indirect light to survive.

When should I repot my plant?

Repot every 1-2 years or when the plant outgrows its current pot.
