How to Grow and Care for Luculia

Luculia requires well-draining, slightly acidic soil and must be kept in bright, filtered sunlight. One special care point is maintaining consistent moisture without waterlogging, as luculia is sensitive to overly wet conditions. Additionally, luculia thrives in humid environments, so regular misting or a humidity tray is advised to meet its moisture needs.
