Homalomena | Red Stem Variegated Glossy green foliage with contrasting variegation and rich red-toned stems gives Homalomena Red Stem Variegated a beautifully tropical look. The combination of colourful stems and patterned leaves gives this one plenty of character without needing to be overly flashy. Why You’ll Love It This one has interest from top to bottom — decorative foliage up top and those gorgeous reddish stems underneath. It’s the kind of plant you turn around just to check the stems. Completely reasonable behaviour.

Shipping Info Your plant will be carefully packed by The Rare Nugget to help keep it safe and secure on its way to you. Depending on the size of the plant and the safest way to package it, your plant may be sent: Bare-rooted Semi-rooted Potted or in a transport pot We choose the packing method that best suits the individual plant rather than trying to squeeze everyone into the same box. Minor leaf marking, movement or a little transplant stress can occasionally happen during shipping — apparently plants prefer travelling upright with plenty of legroom. Once your plant arrives, unpack it promptly and give it a little time to settle into its new home.
