What we do and don’t publish
Why we don’t give you a date.
We publish the interval this species usually wants. We don’t publish a date for your plant — nothing here measures it. The interval is a starting point you adjust from what you actually log.
Care cadences
Not established for this species: mist. We’d rather leave them empty than guess.

Environment
Soil & pot
Pot in a well-draining, loamy mix; give it the brightest indoor spot with a few hours of direct sun to encourage its fragrant pinwheel flowers, and repot every 2 years in spring.
Toxicity
Toxic to cats, dogs, and horses — the milky latex sap contains indole alkaloids that cause vomiting, drooling, and lethargy if ingested (per Plant Pono and other plant-toxicology sources).
