LIGHT

WATER
When watering, saturate soil well and allow the top 1-2" to dry out between waterings. Audrey likes evenly moist soil but be careful of overwatering. Err on the side of underwatering vs. overwatering. Ensure adequate drainage, roots don't like sitting in waterlogged soil. Reduce watering in winter. Likes moderate humidity.
