Alternanthera Brasiliana, Plant

Alternanthera brasiliana is a tall, herbaceous plant that can reach a height of 3 metres in the wild, but is normally kept to a height of less than 1 metre in cultivation. This Purple Joyweed is occasionally gathered in the wild for usage as a food and medicine in the local community. It's commonly planted as a decorative plant.

General

The stems of the Alternanthera Brasiliania plant, which range in colour from red to green to purple, are delicately hirsute while young but turn glabrescent as they mature.

The vanilla-colored pom-pom blooms are small and arranged in compact clusters (7–20 mm long) at the upper leaf branches.

These Purple Joyweed clusters are spherical to somewhat extended in shape, and they are foaled on 3–10 cm long stalks.

It can bloom at any time of year, however it blooms more frequently in the winter in temperate and cooler subtropical areas.

Place your plant in Miniature Garden.

Sunlight

Your Gompherna Brasiliania will grow best in full bright sun. Place it in direct sunlight for the most vibrant foliage colour.

Watering

Water your Alternanthera Brasiliania plants frequently enough to prevent the soil from drying up completely.

Your Purple Joyweed plant prefers to be watered on a regular basis, but just lightly.

Watering should be adjusted according to the soil type and weather conditions. Water gently on clay soils since they can hold more moisture, but more in sandy soils because they require more humidity.

Soil

Your Alternanthera Red Ruby Plant grows well in any soil type as long as it is well-draining. You can also add organic matter like peat moss, compost, or manure to the soil to enhance its drainage.

Fertilizer

Your Parrot Leaf Plant don't require any additional fertiliser, but if they aren't flourishing, give them a shovelful of compost in the summer.

Toxicity

Your Alternanthera Brasiliania plants are highly toxic and therefore can be harmful to pets and kids.

Additional Care

During the winter, keep your Purple Joyweed plant in a well-ventilated area and water it sparingly.

During the dry, hot season, make sure to water your exotic plant frequently if you're growing in a container.

Pinching off your Brasiliania plant's developing tips on a regular basis gives it a more tidy and formal appearance.

If you're growing it in the ground, feed it every two months, and if you're growing it in containers, feed it every two to three weeks.

Troubleshooting

Is your Alternanthera Brasiliania plant starting to decay or losing its colour? The reason is that the soil in which you put your plant is not well-drained.

Is your Alternanthera Brasiliania plant getting a lanky, unattractive appearance? It is because it needs to be pruned and pinched on a regular basis during the growing season.
