A beautiful, low-maintenance indoor plant known for its glossy green leaves and elegant white blooms. It’s one of the most popular houseplants because it’s easy to care for and helps freshen indoor air.

- Prefers bright, indirect light
- Can tolerate low light, but may bloom less
- Avoid direct sunlight (can burn leaves)
💧 Watering:
