Baby Plants – Cryptanthus Ruby Star

Description

Baby Cryptanthus Ruby Star, commonly known as Earth Stars, are small, indoor house plants with slender leaves which grow in a low rosette shape. Slender leaves are pink, with a dark stripe down the centre.

Place Baby Cryptanthus Ruby Star in an area where it will receive bright, but indirect sunlight, mimicking the rainforest canopy where they naturally grow in the wild. Since these plants are rainforest natives, they’re also humidity lovers, making excellent kitchen or bathroom plants. If kept elsewhere, they will benefit from some regular misting.

The miniature size of this baby plant makes it perfect for smaller homes and spaces. It would look fabulous in the living room, bathroom, or bedroom but a baby plant is particularly great as a desk plant to brighten up the office, or to add some décor to an empty shelf.

It’s not unusual to give your plant a name… so don’t hesitate to choose one that you think suits the plant! Try naming your plant with the first name or word that you think of when you look at it – that’s how we ended up with an orchid named Clover and spider plant called Joseph.
