〰️These plants do prefer slightly higher humidity levels as they are tropical/sub-tropical plants but nothing that requires too much specialised care. If you notice crispy, brown looking marks on the leaves this is typically a sign of not enough humidity. You can create more humidity by clustering plants together and misting the leaves.
