You're probably familiar with the red Poinsettia plant, a relative of this delightful plant. Around the bloom, 5 bright red leaves form, many smaller than the poinsettia, making them subtle and charming... In the tropics, the plant can spread vigorously, which bodes well for this attractive potted plant. So, let it grow in a sizable pot; it tolerates a bit of cold, but preferably no frost. In summer, the plant can tolerate both sun and shade.
