Light: Bright, indirect light is preferable, but they can tolerate some direct (but not harsh midday) morning or afternoon sun.
Water: Water when the soil is dry about an inch at the top. They are thirsty plants in spring and summer, but letting the soil dry a little at top helps make sure you're not overwatering.
Humidity: No specific requirements really, but they wouldn't mind the odd misting.
Feed: Apply a weak dose of a fertiliser once or twice a month during the growing season.
Care tips: If you're not watering enough, or are watering way too much you might see some brown spots and a leaf or two drop. Change your ways and your plant will quickly recover.
Height and growth rate: Ultimate height is around 3 metres.
Toxicity: Considered poisonous, therefore keep away from children and animals. The sap can be an irritant so wash your hands if any comes into contact with your skin.
Origin: Western Africa.
