I bought this plant at Lowes today. Well not this one exactly, but this looks like it. Looks pretty good but some of the leaves are damaged. The soil is not extremely wet but it is moist. I took it to my office where there are no windows to the outside but there is an abundance of flourescent lighting for a minimum of 10 hours a day. Matter of fact, I set it on my desk directly beneath one of the lights.
Overall it looks healthy, stems are thick as my little finger, firm and look good.
Is there any special care I need to give it other then to let it completely dry out, water from the bottom, and not water very often??? It has lots of leaves.. should I remove the damaged ones?
