Alternanthera thrives as a houseplant. The 'Ruby Flake' variety has small, wavy, green and pink leaves. We love it for its rapid growth and compact habit. It's recommended to pinch the tips of the stems (like basil) to encourage branching and the development of its dense foliage. During its growing season (summer), it prefers moist soil. 

Every live plant is unique. Your plant will be cared for like it's our own and will be selected especially for you if you purchase online. Please note that unless otherwise identified, the plant you receive will vary from the picture provided (i.e. different number of leaves, variegation change..etc)
