Care Guide

Type: Evergreen Perennial

Sunlight: Full Sun to Semi-Shade. The richest foliage colour develops when grown in full sun.

Water: Water regularly during establishment. Once established, keep the soil evenly moist, allowing the surface to dry slightly between waterings.

Spacing: Plant 30–45cm apart for a dense, colourful display.

Frost: Frost Sensitive. Frost can damage or blacken the foliage. Protect plants during cold weather, as healthy new growth will emerge once temperatures rise.

Maintenance: Pinch back the growing tips regularly to encourage a compact, bushy plant and maintain vibrant foliage.
