Move it outside in summer to a sheltered spot and it will harden off, returning indoors before frost. It can stay outdoors in autumn as temperatures remain mild. You can leave it up to ten days without water. Ledebouria socialis is sensitive to being moved frequently, so choose a stable location once placed. Keep it on a high shelf out of reach, as it should not be nibbled or eaten by cats and dogs.
