Acalypha hispida, also known as the Chenille Plant or Red Hot Cattail, is an eye-catching houseplant that brings a unique tropical flair to any space. Its long, fuzzy, red or pink flower spikes resemble chenille yarn, making it a striking centerpiece. The bright, trailing blooms contrast beautifully with the green foliage, creating a dynamic look.
Ideal for hanging baskets or as a cascading plant in a pot, Acalypha hispida thrives in bright, indirect sunlight and warm temperatures. It requires regular watering to keep the soil moist but avoid waterlogging. Use well-draining potting mix for best results and consider occasional misting to mimic its natural humid environment.
This unusual and attractive plant adds a vibrant touch to any plant collection. Perfect for those looking for something a bit more exotic and dramatic.

Buyers are responsible for return shipping costs and packaging. Once we receive the item in unused and undamaged condition, we will process your refund, excluding the original and return shipping costs.
