This is a relatively compact variety that typically reaches a mature height of 18 to 24 inches. Its narrow, sword-like leaves grow vertically, making it a great choice for shelves or tabletops where space is limited.

Yes, it is a tropical plant that prefers consistent warmth. You should keep it in an environment that stays above 60°F, as cold drafts or temperatures dropping below this threshold can cause the plant to go dormant or suffer damage.
