✂️ Care
Plant the stems in groups in the mid-ground. Prune regularly — trimmed tops can be replanted for a fuller result. More light enhances the red color. Liquid fertilizer like Sera Florena supports healthy growth.
💡 Planter's Tip
Combine with fresh green plants such as Micranthemum Monte Carlo or Eleocharis for maximum color contrast — this will make the red color stand out even more.
