Watering
The amount of light and the current season of the year will directly govern the frequencies of waters per month. Specimens placed in darker areas must be kept on the drier side to life, whereas brighter locations will require more soil moisture
Lighting
We’d recommend keeping your Purple Passion in the warmest and brightest possible location without the risk of direct sunlight. Although a north-facing windowsill is best, you can still keep the specimen in either an east or west-facing windowsill,
