The source listing estimates current plants at 18–24 inches tall; height, spread, and fullness vary naturally. Photos are representative. The source estimates mature growth at approximately 2–3 feet, but the precise botanical identity has not been confirmed and eventual size depends on the plant, container, and growing conditions. These are estimates, not size guarantees.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOptional decorative planters\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConsider our \u003ca href=\"\/products\/basel-6-inch-planter-white\"\u003eWhite BASEL\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/products\/basel-6-inch-planter-black\"\u003eBlack BASEL\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/products\/oslo-6-inch-planter-white\"\u003eWhite OSLO\u003c\/a\u003e, or \u003ca href=\"\/products\/oslo-6-inch-planter-black\"\u003eBlack OSLO\u003c\/a\u003e. Decorative planters are sold separately; the plant ships in its nursery pot. Each has a 6.3-inch opening. Check the actual nursery pot's outside rim diameter and height before choosing a cover pot. BASEL and OSLO have no drainage holes; retain a removable inner pot with drainage rather than planting directly into them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare guide\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Provide bright to moderate indirect light. Avoid harsh direct sun, which can scorch or fade leaves, and very dim locations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater:\u003c\/strong\u003e Keep the mix consistently lightly moist, not soggy. Water when the surface begins to dry, then drain thoroughly. Avoid letting the entire root ball dry out. Check soil conditions rather than using a fixed calendar. If tap water contributes to brown edges, consider rainwater, distilled water, or appropriately filtered water.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use a moisture-retentive yet airy houseplant mix in a pot with drainage holes. Our \u003ca href=\"\/products\/rich-houseplant-soil-blend\"\u003eRich Houseplant Soil Blend\u003c\/a\u003e, sold separately, can be amended with perlite or bark as needed for aeration.

Use a humidifier if indoor air is dry, with gentle airflow.

Inspect undersides for pests. Curling or brown edges can have several causes, including dry soil, dry air, excess salts, or temperature stress; check conditions before changing care.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRepotting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Repot when crowded roots warrant it into a modestly larger draining pot during active growth.
