The phyllis genus requires moderate care, with balanced light, consistent moisture without waterlogging, and well-draining soil rich in organic matter. Temperature preferences are moderate, without extreme fluctuations. Common challenges for the phyllis include pest infestations, such as aphids and spider mites, and potential fungal diseases if overwatered or in poor ventilation. Seasonally, phyllis needs protection from harsh sunlight in summer, adequate watering in spring and summer growth periods, and reduced watering in winter to match dormancy.
