'Mirror Face' is sensitive to being moved once settled, so choose its spot carefully. Move it outside in summer in a sheltered location, and keep it covered from rain. Cats, dogs, and small children should be kept away from it, as the sap causes skin and paw irritation if contacted, and it should be kept on a high shelf out of reach.
