In its natural habitat, the plant can grow into a large tree and is often found near rivers and other moist areas. This tropical origin explains its preference for warmth, bright light and a consistent watering routine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWater\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKeep the potting soil slightly moist, but avoid allowing the roots to remain in water for extended periods. Allow the top layer of the soil to dry out slightly before watering again.
