Be stingy with the water. Too much water will kill it and you'll only get a few tiny ordinary leaves, but a tiny drop of water occasionally will allow it to grow those beautiful, huge split fan-like leaves. :-6
Also, when the leaves get dusty, DON'T buy the expensive babybio leaf shine stuff. Put a little milk in a saucer, dip a piece of cotton wool in it and gently wipe the leaves with it. They come up a beautiful deep glossy green.
Oh and btw, when you hold the leaves to clean them you should have cool hands. Our hand temperature is too hot for plants and it burns them. They don't like it. Oh, and you must talk to them too.
