Botanical Name: Hypoestes Phyllostachya Common Name(s): Polka Dot Plant Description: Native to South Africa, Madagascar, and south east Asia, the polka dot plant is a lively and be autiful little plant with brightly spotted leaves that stand out especially well against other plants. Put them in a mass of ferns or ivies, and their colors will stand out in bright contrast. In colder climates it is an annual plant, expected to live for about one year and die off after its sprout. In tropical climates, it is a perennial that lives a long time. The most common polka dot plants have green and pink-flecked leaves, but other varieties can have red, white, and or even purple variegation. Contact us to see what's currently available.
