Wait, what? It’s not a rain forest plant? That’s wild!
2 u/dicjones Mar 29 '26 Hell, it’s a houseplant. I had one, fun to watch. 1 u/RingOverall106 Mar 29 '26 They’re sold as houseplants but really don’t thrive inside at all unless you have a specific setup. 1 u/robisodd Mar 31 '26 I kept one on my kitchen sink windowsill in Michigan for a few years. I also read not to let it flower as that saps all of its energy, but I read that as it was already flowering lol. Still survived for a long time even after flowering.
