Flowering Period & Fruit

Produces hanging clusters of delicate white or pale pink flowers with bright yellow centers. Can bloom throughout the year in ideal conditions.

Sun Tolerance

Thrives in plenty of bright, indirect light. Protect from harsh, direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.

Maintenance

Moderate. Appreciates higher humidity. Water thoroughly when the top 1-2 inches of soil are dry, and provide good drainage. Prune as needed to maintain shape and encourage bushier growth.
