QUALITY GUARANTEED

  • Iresine Herbstii ‘Rich Redstar’ captivates with its vivid, crimson leaves and a distinctly tropical look. The foliage, a deep, rich hue, is laced with prominent veins and possesses a glossy finish. This makes it a superb option for injecting contrast and visual impact into summer containers, borders, and indoor arrangements. It shines when used as a focal point or when paired with softer green plants to create a striking visual dynamic.

  • This variety grows quickly, developing a compact, bushy form. Pinching back the stems encourages a fuller, more robust plant. ‘Rich Redstar’ is perfect for patio pots, bedding displays, and conservatories, and it also thrives indoors as a houseplant, provided it has bright light. Its vibrant colour endures throughout the growing season, making it a popular choice for modern and tropical-themed gardens.

  • Light Required Full sun to partial shade (best leaf colour in full sun)

    Watering Water regularly during active growth, keeping soil evenly moist but not waterlogged.

    Best Growing Conditions Grow Iresine in a bright, sheltered position in well-drained, fertile soil. It prefers warmth and should be protected from frost, making it best grown as a seasonal plant outdoors or year-round indoors. Water regularly during the growing season, keeping the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged, and pinch back stems to maintain a compact shape.
