They are dark green with some glossy shine.They can be grown outdoors but it must be in a warm zone. Water regularly for this plant to be happy. You can add moss for fertility and acidity.

Medium
Water once a week. Before watering, feel the soil, top layer should be dry, if not dry wait a day or two. If the soil still is wet you risk giving the plant too much water, you don’t want it to rot.
