Dumb Cane Compacta Care Guide
Light
I prefer bright, indirect light but can tolerate light shade. Lower light levels reduce the rate of growth and dull my leaves, but direct sunlight will scorch them.
Water
When the top inches of my soil start to dry out, give me a drink, but don't overwater me.
Temperature
My ideal temperature is between 18-24°C but I can cope with as low as 10°C for short periods. Keep me away from draughts.
Feeding
I'm not too hungry, so will only want a weak dose of fertiliser during growing season.
Grooming
Wipe my leaves with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dust.
Care
If I'm growing too tall, or looking a bit unkempt, trim my stems with sharp shears.
