Stromanthe sanguinea

Stromanthe are native to the rain forests of Brazil and are quickly becoming a popular houseplant while having that “wow factor”. It’s glossy, oblong leaves are highly variegated in shades of green with a bright fuchsia coloring below. The leaves follow and respond to the light, rolling up at night and facing the brightest source. However, the plant will not tolerate direct light. It prefers a moist soil, standing water is not good for the roots.
