An adorable plant with small striped leaves. Its magnificent pink coloring brings a romantic touch to any decor. Despite its small size, it provides volume and density when it grows. In order to keep its shape compact and "chubby", it is recommended to pinch the tips of the stems frequently. Also, callisias prefer bright rooms and can be very sensitive to excess water. It is important to let the potting soil dry completely before watering.
Non-toxic, but sap in contact with skin may cause slight irritation.
