Candlesticks typically requires moderate care, thriving in environments that offer ample light but not direct, harsh sun. Watering should maintain consistent moisture without waterlogging, with well-draining soil being essential to prevent root rot. Candlesticks prefers temperate climates, sensitive to extreme temperatures. Common challenges include susceptibility to pests like aphids and issues caused by overwatering or poor soil conditions. Seasonally, candlesticks demands less water in winter and may require protection from frost, while in the growing season of spring and summer, more vigilant care in terms of light exposure and watering frequency is prudent.
