Plant Care Guide: Callisia Pink Panther

Callisia Pink Panther // Callisia Repens

This adorable little darling may look like a delicate wall flower, but she's actually pretty resilient. She'll thrive in bright, indirect light but can handle some direct sunlight. And be sure not to overwater this beauty - she prefers things on the drier side.

  Like's a little attention
Bright indirect light is ideal, can tolerate some direct light
Not pet friendly if ingested
Water once the soil has almost completely dried out

 

Love notes

Keep your plant pal nourished and supported with a good quality plant food like We The Wild Grow Concentrate and We The Wild Support Pellets. These powerful plant essentials will keep your plants happy, strong and resilient, and will reward you with new growth a'plenty! 
  
Don't forget to wipe down those leaves when they're looking a little dusty. You can also spray with We The Wild Protect Spray every couple of weeks to keep leaves looking lush and healthy. 
  
Follow the recommended advise on watering above - if unsure, a Moisture Meter could be your secret weapon! This handy tool will show you exactly how dry your soil is to avoid any over or under watering fails. 
 
To ensure your new bestie gets enough drainage, we recommend keeping them in a nursery pot and displaying in a cover pot. If you do want to pot up your plant, make sure your decorative pot has a drainage hole and you've removed the plug. 
 
If your Pink Panther plant is starting to lose her pink hue, it's time to move her into some brighter, indirect light to get that colour back. Her delicate leaves will naturally trail making her a perfect pick for a shelf or sideboard, but if you want to help her look fuller, simply pinch off the growing tips to promote extra stems.
