स्ट्रोमेंथे 'ट्रायोस्टार'<br> <i>स्ट्रोमेंथे सेंगुइनिया</i>

Stromanthe sanguinea 'Triostar' is a justifiably popular plant. With stunning pink undersides to its leaves, and pale pink, green and white variegation on the front side. It's a beauty. It has a bit of a reputation for being 'finicky' which I don't think is quite right. So long as it's in the right location, no direct light, and right amount of water, it's actually pretty easy to take care of. However, it can test your OCD tendencies if you like your plants to always look 'perfect'. In other words, it tends to get brown tips on the ends of the leaves etc. but this is normal and nothing to stress about. A mightily impressive houseplant.
