All plants need light, but this cheese plant will thrive even in quite low light – most rooms in the house will be suitable. It is happy at a normal room temperature, and if gets hot in the summer you can mist it with ordinary tap water to cool it down.
In the spring and summer when the plant is growing it will need to be watered often, and feed to keep it healthy but in the winter when the plant is resting watering is not so important. You might like to feed it every month with ordinary houseplant food to help it grow and to keep the leaves nice and fresh.
As the plant grows it can be re-potted in a larger pot. Choose rich compost that will hold water well. In the right spot your cheese plant can get to 6 foot in a couple of years. To restrict growth, keep slightly cooler and darker and restrict the pot size.
Problem solving: Brown tips to the leaves are the result of a dry atmosphere, try giving your plant a good misting and water more regularly, alternatively you can keep a bowl of water next to the plant to add humidity to the environment.
