Beautiful Tropical Tricolor Houseplant, 12 inches tall. This plant stands the leaves up at night showing the bright raspberry red, and opens up more downward during the day displaying the variegated green and white. Just lovely. Enjoys lots of water and bright light. No straight sun. You will receive 1 plant, shipped bareroot. 6 inch pot size. You will need to furnish pot and potting soil. Sorry no sales to California, Hawaii, or Arizona PLEASE NOTE******* Winter shipments, you must let me know if it's too cold to ship to you so we can make arrangements to hold your plant for you until it is warmer. I can not ship to you when the temps are at freezing. This plant won't survive that temp.********** Link to our storefront https://www.etsy.com/shop/SwampLife #plants #vscoplants #plantspo #plantlife #gallery #plant #plantzine #flowerslovers #flower #botanical #floral #florals #instaplant #plantstagram #plantalism #jungalow #plantsarefriends #cactus #botanicalgarden #jungalowstyle #jungle #agaveattenuata #photoplant #bananapalm #palms #plantfocus #plantsofinstagram #tropicalplants #greenplant
