Watering Needs:

Keep soil evenly moist

Care Guide: Keep ‘Fire Alarm’ Blazing

1. Light: Thrives in part shade but can handle full sun in cooler climates. Too much harsh afternoon sun? It’ll let you know.
2. Soil: Prefers well-draining soil rich in organic matter. Heavy clay? Loosen it up with compost—this plant likes a little luxury.
3. Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Think “damp forest floor” vibes.
4. Feeding: A light feeding in early spring with balanced fertilizer keeps it glowing like a fresh spark.
5. Pruning: Remove any damaged or crispy leaves as needed, and trim back in late winter to refresh the foliage.
6. Hardiness: Hardy down to zone 4. Evergreen in milder climates, and it’s tough enough to bounce back after frosty winters.
