Stunning plant. I'm curious how easy it is to overwinter indoors and any special treatment you need to give it.
@malterod it overwinters fine indoors. Needs lighting. It might get a few thrips but it never gets bad. Before bringing it inside, chop off most of the leaves/leaf stalks. The plant drops leaves with major environmental changes and will grow them back quickly. Do the same before taking it outside in spring.
