   What you'll need

   • Organic potting soil (tanah organik)
   • Perlite
   • Leaf shine

   All available here at the nursery.

Something wrong?

• Dropping leaves

  Usually after a move or a draught. Keep it in one place and it settles.

• Brown spots in the middle of the leaves

  Too much water. Let the soil dry more between drinks.

• Crispy brown edges

  Too dry. Water more thoroughly.

• White sap where a leaf broke off

  Normal. The sap can irritate skin, so wash your hands after handling it.
