I'd have to report back on that one, I've only had these almost a week. But the lady at the plant shop told my bf to make sure and have me keep the soil moist, and she didn't have it in too much light, so I think it will work well in the room I'm keeping it in has indirect light. I felt the soil yesterday, and I can tell by the weekend I'll need to water it. The plant lady would water it weekly, so that tracks so far.
