Variegated Plectranthus - Swedish Ivy

Plectranthus coleoides variegata (Variegated Swedish Ivy)

Variegated Swedish Ivy is a striking and vibrant houseplant, perfect for adding a touch of brightness to any indoor space. This variety is distinguished by its dark green leaves boldly accented with bright white edges, creating a vivid contrast that catches the eye. The plant's lush, trailing growth makes it an excellent choice for hanging baskets or as a decorative cover for shelves and tabletops.

Easy to care for, Variegated Swedish Ivy thrives in medium to bright indirect light and prefers a consistently moist soil environment. Its rapid growth and easy propagation make it a popular choice among both novice and seasoned plant enthusiasts. Regular pruning can encourage a fuller, bushier plant, enhancing its ornamental appeal.
