Acalypha hispida, commonly called the Chenille Plant, is a dramatic tropical plant prized for its long, fuzzy, bright red flower catkins that cascade gracefully from the stems. The soft, velvety blooms resemble tassels or “chenille” threads, creating a bold, eye-catching display against the glossy green foliage. This plant brings color, texture, and movement to any bright indoor space and is especially striking when allowed to trail or spill from a pot.

Plant Care

• Light: Bright, indirect light; some gentle morning sun is beneficial for blooming.
• Water: Keep soil evenly moist but not soggy; allow the top layer to dry slightly between waterings.
• Additionally: Blooms best with consistent light and regular trimming to encourage fuller growth and continued flowering.

Pet Safety: Toxic to cats and dogs if ingested.
