Hemigraphis colorata

د.إ 15.00

Purple Waffle plant is a unique terrarium plant that is commonly seen in stores being sold as a true aquatic plant. Beware, this plant is not fully aquatic and can only live submerged for extended periods before melting away. This plant will thrive when grown emersed in a high humidity environment such as terrariums or paludariums. The leaves are green on top with a bright purple underside. The texture of the leaves are ruffled and wrinkly which provides an excellent contrast to other types of foliage.

This plant has a rather interesting colour scheme, the typical green on most leaved plants like this one is diluted and greying out, while on the underside and some of the front face of the leaf is overtaken by a light purple. The leaves also have rigid, jaggy edges giving them a sharp presentation, the stalks grow quite tall to allow the leaves a larger area to grow and spread
