In warm climates, it is advisable to provide ventilation, avoid excess moisture, and protect it from prolonged extreme heat.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan\u003e☀️ Lighting\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt needs \u003cstrong\u003every intense light and appreciates direct sun,\u003c\/strong\u003e which promotes the compactness of the rosettes and enhances their colors.
