Callisia Rosita

$29.99


 

Callisia rosato (often sold as Callisia repens 'Pink Lady' or 'Pink Panther') is a charming, fast-growing, low-maintenance trailing succulent with small green, white, and bright pink leaves. Perfect for hanging baskets, it prefers bright, indirect light to maintain its vibrant color and thrives in well-draining soil.
Key Care Guidelines:
    • Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light. Direct, harsh sun can scorch it, while too little light leads to sparse, green growth.
    • Water: Keep the soil slightly moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top layer of soil to dry out between waterings, watering more frequently in spring/summer and less in winter
      .
  • Soil: Use a well-draining succulent or potting mix.
  • Temperature & Humidity: Thrives in warm, humid environments. Prefers temperatures between 15°C and 30°C and is not frost-tolerant.
  • Propagation: Very easy to propagate from stem cuttings placed directly in moist soil or water.
  • Maintenance: Regular pruning makes the plant bushier and prevents it from becoming too "leggy".
  • Toxicity: Generally considered non-toxic, but can cause mild skin irritation in pets.
  • This plant is often confused with Callisia repens 'Pink Panther', but they are similar in care and appearance, both being, essentially, a pink variant of the common Turtle Vine
