    I also have this plant but, it is over five feet tall and extremely leggy. Compared to yours mine looks under-nourished. Do you have any care tips?

    Sorry it has taken me so long to answer. I haven't logged on in a long time.

    Hmm. Actually I don't do anything for this plant. It sits about 12 feet away from south facing windows. So sunny indirect light. I water once a week in winter and sometimes twice a week in summer. Mine is double-potted: The outside pot is not only for decoration but serves to keep humidity. I fertilize twice a year with Miracle Gro Singles (single packet of water-soluble fertilizer). Hope that info helps.
