What zone are you? I keep mine under florescence...so bright light and I keep them on the dryer side for the winter months...Keep the mites off by wiping the leaves,top and bottom with a little warm soapy water,weekly and dont fertilize until the days get longer and brighter...then put them outside.
Nice tropical soil mix with perlite to keep it well drained...as far as fruiting...mine have yet to do that....hping this year....if anyone has any suggestions on getting them to fruit?????cheers.....
