Description: Alternanthera ficoidea ‘Variegata’ is a colorful ornamental foliage plant prized for its vibrant, multicolored leaves. The foliage typically displays a striking mix of green, cream, pink, red, and sometimes purple tones, often in irregular patterns or splashes. It is a compact, low-growing plant that forms a dense, bushy mound, making it ideal for borders, ground cover, container gardening, or decorative plant arrangements. Its bold coloration adds contrast and texture to both indoor and outdoor plant displays.

Care:
Lighting: Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain its vibrant variegation. Can tolerate partial sun outdoors, but too much direct sunlight may scorch leaves.
Watering: Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top layer of soil to slightly dry between watering.
Soil: Well-draining, nutrient-rich potting mix.
Temperature: Thrives in warm conditions (18–30°C). Protect from cold temperatures and frost.
Maintenance: Regular pinching or pruning encourages bushier growth. Fertilize lightly during the growing season to support vibrant foliage color.
