Here’s what I’ve learned growing this beauty into a lush, full hanging plant:
1. Pinch to Win – The #1 trick? Pinch the tips regularly. Every time you pinch a growing tip, the plant sends energy to side shoots, creating that dense, bushy look. It feels counterintuitive at first (like you’re stopping growth), but trust me — it multiplies the fullness fast.
2. Bright Indirect Light – I hung mine near a bright window where it gets loads of indirect sun. Too little light = leggy. Too much direct sun = scorched stripes.
