It appears to be a stove plant, requiring to be potted in a 

 compost of peat loam and sand, in equal proportions. During 

 the summer season an ample supply of water should be given 

 to its roots, taking care to wet the leaves as seldom as possible. 

 In winter, water once a week will be quite sufficient. It may 

 be propagated from leaves, cut at the base of the veins, and 

 laid down on a pot filled with silver sand.
