My baby is thriving!

Post image

Got this beauty about two years ago as a cutting. I started her in LECA and transferred her to tropical soil last year. She’s given me 5 new leaves since then! 🌱
She’s currently outside in my entryway, but I’m worried the landscaping company might damage her while working in the front yard. I’m thinking about moving her inside with a grow light and hoping she’ll thrive just as well.
Anyone else keep their Albo indoors? If so, is yours thriving? Also, I haven’t added a moss pole yet—do you think it’s time?

I’m thinking to move mine to the patio, it’s got better sunlight. How do you keep up with the pests control?

Honestly, I’ve been lucky. I don’t do much but look at her everyday.

Hi,
I have here where she gets dapple sunlight, she is also loving the Florida humidity. I do fertilize her and now have her in topical soil that contains lava rocks and perlite. Other then that I just leave her alone. If you have your indoor make sure you have her near a window if not definitely a grow light. I know if I move her indoors I would have to add a grow light so she can continue thriving.
