Comments:
Tropical that must be protected from freezes. Makes a wonderful container plant. Provide a well drained soil and filtered sunlight. Fertilize during the summer months to encourage more growth. When plants become too tall for their surrondings, tops can be removed and new shoots will emerge further down the stem of a mature specimen.
