Singapore Twist Ti Plant

The Singapore Twist Ti plant is a tropical shrub with broad green leave with burgundy undersides and bright pink stems. The leaves are arranged on the stem in a flattish fan shape which highlights the vibrant coloring of this plant. It can grow to about 8 feet high and 3 feet wide but if branching is desired then a cane will need to be clipped. With care, this cutting can be rooted for a new plant. Good quality light is necessary to maintain bright leaf color but not necessary for plant survival. This plant is not hardy in Chicago and is generally treated as either an annual or is lifted and overwintered in a suitable pot in a warm sunny location.
