Horty Hints

Pray goodbye to the dry! If there is little leaf curl, but lots of browning, the leaves aren't getting enough water. If the soil is already wet, inspect the roots for rot.

Warm Water Weekly! These plants like a lot to drink in the summer, sometimes 4 times per week. Use room temperature water, to keep the soil evenly moist, but not soggy.

Sun-worshipper! If you have noticed your plant has stopped praying, don’t panic. The plant doesn’t need to move to be healthy, just watch out for scorching.

Please note: images show how this plant may look at various stages of maturity. The size you choose may look different.
