This bright red baby would love to take her spot inside your urban jungle. This is the adorable Hypoestes Phyllostachya Red, better known as the ‘Red Polka Dot Plant’. This red leafed baby originates from Madagascar, where she enjoys a tropical climate. Did you know that we also have her beautiful pink sister available? Together they make a delightful duo to cheer you up everyday! Buy Hypoestes Phyllostachya online.
You can care for this Polka Dot plant by placing her bright indirect light, this will help to keep her bright red leaves vibrant. This baby loves the tropical climate she originates from, so she prefers a warmer temperature, between 20 and 23 degrees. Keep the humidity at atleast 50%, but placing her on a pebble tray will also do the trick for her. Keep her soil slightly moist, which will require watering her every 3-4 days. She will tell you when she is really thirsty by dramatically drooping down. Don’t worry, she will be revived as soon as you water her thoroughly.
Baby Pyllosachya Red arrived in perfect condition and looks healthy and is very full! I love the colour and everything. I love their packaging and fast shipping, but they forgot to put a heatpack but that's fine. I can't wait to see it grow.
perfect for a terrarium
Love it! I bought and planted with the pink, and they've taken off -- they look like they've been doing their thing and thriving for years, not weeks!
I received this baby in very good condition. Looks like the picture as well which was a great thing. It has now been 2 weeks since receiving the her and she is Thriving! I can't wait to see what she will become as time goes on! Her red has become even darker and more vibrant since we received her, she is also a very fast grower and is pushing lots of new leaf babies as we speak. She is also a Drama queen, but less so than my Herbstii Bloodleaf. She really loves having a misting everyday and pebble tray, as she is a fancy lady and does not like less than optimal humidity.

Everything about Hypoestes
The Hypoestes phyllostachya is a member of the Acanthaceae family. You might know it better as the "Polka Dot Plant" because of its unique leaf pattern, which looks like it's covered in dots. This plant originally comes from regions like South Africa, Madagascar, and Southeast Asia, where it thrives in the tropical rainforest climate. The Polka Dot Plant grows low to the ground in its natural habitat, spreading its colourful leaves like a carpet.
