Terrarium care

1. Mounting: attach to wood, cork, or stones using terrarium-safe glue or wire.
2. Light: bright indirect; tolerates some filtered sun.
3. Water: mist 2–3× weekly; soak monthly if air is very dry.
4. Airflow: important to prevent rot.

Reptile compatibility

• Recommended: arboreal geckos (Phelsuma, Lygodactylus), anoles, dart frogs, small chameleons.
• Avoid: heavy reptiles (iguanas, monitors, bearded dragons) that could break the plant.
