Ben's tips on plant care:

Sow the seeds about 3cm apart on peat soil, but do not cover with soil. Always keep the soil slightly moist, cover with a glass or cling film. Place pot in a bright, warm place at approx. 20° C. Germination period approx. 10-12 days.
- Position/light requirements: partial shade, avoid direct sunlight
- Substrate: Ben's Philodendron & Monstera Soil or epiphyte substrate if cultured in terrarium
- Temperature: optimal at 26° C (day), approx. 18° C (night), do not let cool down below 12° C
- Watering: if kept in a pot, water once a week when the upper substrate layer becomes dry, less frequently in winter, ensure drainage, use lukewarm and low-calcium water
- Humidity: needs high humidity
- Nutrient addition: fertilise moderately every 6-8 weeks in spring/summer.
- Grows slowly, can be repotted after 2-3 years when the soil is densely rooted and dries out more quickly.
