Maintenance of plant :
Be careful not to overwater the plants plus having a humidifier handy would help.
Place it under an east or west facing window where there’s bright light to let those leaves develop those rich, deep hues.
Since the plant require rich soil that drains well to thrive, make sure its well fed with organic compost and peat moss.
Water only when the soil feels dry to touch.
