Callisia repens 'Pink Panther' 

Callisia repens 'Pink Panther' is a charming miniature trailing houseplant loved for its tiny, colorful leaves splashed with shades of green, cream, and bubblegum pink. Often compared to a miniature Tradescantia, this compact grower forms dense mats of delicate foliage that gracefully spill over the edges of hanging baskets, small pots, and terrariums. Its vibrant variegation and petite size make it a favorite among collectors and anyone looking to add a pop of color to their indoor plant collection.

Unlike larger trailing plants, 'Pink Panther' stays naturally compact, typically reaching only about 4 inches tall while producing cascading stems that become more beautiful with time. Providing brighter light and allowing the soil to dry between waterings helps maintain its dense, colorful growth and prevents leggy stems.

Pink Panther Callisia Basic Care: Easy

Watering: Allow the soil to dry completely between waterings. Water thoroughly, then allow excess water to drain away. Avoid keeping the soil constantly wet.

Light: Provide bright indirect light with a few hours of gentle morning sun if possible. Brighter conditions help maintain the plant's compact growth and vibrant pink coloration.

Soil/Drainage: Use a fast-draining succulent or cactus potting mix in a container with drainage holes.

Temperature/Humidity: Thrives in temperatures between 60–80°F with average household humidity. Protect from temperatures below 50°F.

Feeding: Feed every 4–6 weeks during spring and summer with a balanced liquid houseplant fertilizer diluted to half strength. Little to no fertilizer is needed during winter.

Repotting: Repot every 1–2 years or when the plant outgrows its container.

General Tips: For the fullest, most colorful plant, keep Pink Panther in bright light and avoid overwatering. Pinch back stem tips occasionally to encourage denser growth, and propagate easily from stem cuttings rooted in soil or water.
