Caution
It may benefit from staking if it becomes top-heavy or if the leaves begin to droop. Prune any yellowing or damaged leaves to keep the plant looking its best. As it grows, it may develop a thick, woody trunk. Can trim the lower leaves as it ages to expose the trunk and give the plant a tree-like appearance.
