Iresine. Bloodleaf

Explore the vibrant beauty of Iresine, also known as 'Bloodleaf'! This flowering plant, belonging to the Amaranthaceae family, dazzles with intensely colored leaves ranging from red to pink, purple, yellow, or green.

Native to tropical climates, Iresine is a spectacular addition to both gardens and indoor spaces. Its contrasting leaves stand out when planted in groups or clusters, adding a unique splash of color that beautifully complements other plants with varying shades of green.

While it's resilient against pests and diseases, protecting it from cold temperatures is crucial as it's not frost-tolerant. For optimal growth, plant it in nutrient-rich, well-draining soil, providing the perfect environment for its development.

Spring pruning is advisable to maintain its shape and health. During winter, in colder regions, consider moving it indoors to spaces with abundant light. In warmer climates, if a cold winter is expected, you can protect it by mulching the soil with pine bark. Additionally, pruning in spring will aid in its recovery and vigorous regrowth.
