    What you'll need

    • Perlite
    • Leaf shine

    All available here at the nursery.

Something wrong?

  • Brown leaf tips

    Tap water, dry air or uneven watering. Trim the tips and use water left out overnight.

  • Lower leaves turning yellow

    A few at a time is normal as it grows. Many at once means too much water.

  • Tall, bare cane

    Cut the top off. The cane sprouts new leaves below the cut.

Indoors, aircon OK
