4” Hypoestes Phyllostachya (Polka Dot Plant ‘Red Splash’)

Hypoestes Phyllostachya, commonly known as Polka Dot Plant or Pink Splash, is a colorful and vibrant houseplant with spotted leaves. Here are simple care instructions:

1. Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can cause the colors to fade. It can tolerate lower light conditions, but the colors may not be as vibrant.

2. Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Avoid letting the soil dry out completely, as this can cause the plant to wilt.

3. Temperature: Maintain temperatures between 65-75°F (18-24°C). Avoid cold drafts and sudden temperature fluctuations.

4. Humidity: Prefers higher humidity levels. Mist the leaves regularly or place the pot on a humidity tray to increase humidity around the plant, especially in dry indoor environments.

5. Soil: Use well-draining potting soil. A mix formulated for houseplants or adding perlite for better drainage is ideal.

By following these care tips, you can enjoy the colorful and attractive foliage of your Hypoestes Phyllostachya Pink Splash indoors throughout the year.
