How to Care for Callisia repens 'Pink Panther'

Be sure to read our planting instructions to ensure a healthy and happy plant for years to come!

How Much Sunlight Does my Callisia repens 'Pink Panther' Plant Need?

How Much Sunlight Does my Callisia repens 'Pink Panther' Plant Need?

Callisia repens 'Pink Panther' plants prefer to be in bright, indirect sunlight. We recommend placing your plant in a north or east-facing window to help enhance its vibrant foliage. However, too much direct sunlight can cause your plant's coloration of its foliage to fade and become dull. It is also crucial to know that your plant's leaves will scorch if it is in direct sunlight for too long. A good rule of thumb is to rotate your plants every couple of days. Doing so will ensure your plant is receiving enough sunlight all around instead of in one spot.

How do I Prune my Callisia repens 'Pink Panther' Plant?

If you want to prune your Callisia repens "Pink Panther' plant to make it look compact and bushy, pinch off the tops of the leaves when they start to grow. Doing so will stop growth from expanding and keep your plant nice and bushy. It is also a good idea to prune off any shoots that are growing differently than the rest of your plant. Doing so will help make the appearance cleaner and precise instead of leggy and unhealthy. Of course, you can always prune off any dead or dying foliage and stems of your plant at any time. It is crucial to use clean shears when pruning your plant to ensure you do not spread any diseases from previous plants.

If your plant holds too much water, it can get crown rot, meaning the plant will die from the roots upward.
