The leaves of this colourful plant have a variegated green and cream upper surface and a burgundy pink reverse, so it looks good from every angle! Forming a handsome and bushy clump, this one will create immediate impact in the home or office.
Home care: Originating from tropical regions, they like relatively stable temperatures (ideally above 15C) and a well-lit position that does not get direct sunlight (think steamy jungle!). They like to be kept well watered, although this can be cut back a little in winter, and they thrive in high humidity, either grow it in a steamy room, mist it with water regularly, and/or sit the pot on a tray of dampened shingle.
