Outdoors in tropical climates it can grow to 4 m tall and 3 m wide, but indoors it is generally contained to about 1-1.5 m tall and wide. Best results with this plant are achieved when it is grown in full sun or partial shade on a well-drained site.

It makes for a fabulous indoor plant to contrast with a light-coloured wall.
