Polka Dot Plant 'Red Splash' 4"

Hypoestes phyllostachya
This petite, spotted foliage plant has become a popular staple in annual shade containers, in terrariums and dish gardens due to its attractive, freckled leaves in pink, red, white and dark green, and due to its compact, rounded, "filler" habit. 'Red Splash' offers rose foliage freckles. These plants are people and pet friendly as well. Grow in medium to bright, indirect lighting 5-6' from a sunny window, middle of a bright room, or in 12-14 hours of fluorescent lighting. Prefers average household temperatures, 60?-70?F. Keep soil evenly moist to slightly dry. Supply extra humidity by setting on a shallow tray of moistened pebbles. Feed with Osmocote or Miracle-Gro April-September. Remove insignificant lavender flowers to keep habit neat and tidy.
