You are buying exact plant in the photo.
Prefers dappled, bright indirect light. Avoid extremes of harsh direct sunlight or dark corners.
Will thrive and produce larger leaves if given a trellis or other support structure to climb. Alternatively can be allowed to cascade from a hanging basket.
Water moderately, allow the surface of the potting mix to dry to the touch before watering again. Avoid wet and dry extremes. Reduce watering in winter.
Loves humidity. Consider a humidifier, or frequent mistings and a pebbled water tray to stand on. Don''t let the bottom of the pot stand in the water.
Likes moist, warm conditions, 65 to 85 F should be fine. Warmer is better.
Use a peat/coir based potting mix with added perlite for good drainage. Aim for a soil PH of 5.5 to 7.0. Repot and refresh soil annually, or do a quick root check to see if they are bound before repotting.
A balanced monthly fertilizer in Spring, Summer and Fall is fine.
