Hi Welcome!
I find them very easy. Keep it in the same pot it came in. Water about once a week and see how that goes. They like moisture but I don't mean soaking, never leave it sitting in a puddle or dish of water.
If it gets too dry, it wilts like a drama queen. Don't panic, just water it. With practice, if it's getting too dry between watering, you'll be able to see the wilt begin.
If it wilts extremely, it will still recover with water- but some leaves may then get yellow and die. So you don't want to do that too often.
Does not want direct sun, but not the darkest corner of the house either (no plant will like dark corners)
Enjoy!
Plant it and they will come.
