    Dont place in the path of direct sunlight,dont put beside/near radiators or stove,dont over water it.

    Mist the leaves with tepid water in a regular basis too.


    If the plant must be placed in the area of a radiator,then place a plastic bottle or tray of water close to the radiator aswell...this will help to create a small moist/humid micro-climate for the plants and its leaves.:)
