Saxifraga Stolonifera 'Tricolor'
Commonly known as Strawberry Begonia
Pot 6cm, Height 12cm including pot
Saxifraga stolonifera 'Tricolor' (Strawberry Begonia) is a beautiful trailing plant with variegated leaves. Here are three tips to keep it thriving:
-
Bright, Indirect Light – This plant prefers bright, indirect light. Too much direct sun can scorch its delicate leaves, while too little light may cause the variegation to fade. A north or east-facing window is ideal.
-
Keep Soil Moist but Well-Drained – Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, but avoid letting the soil become soggy. Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a blend of peat, perlite, and orchid bark.
-
Provide Humidity – Saxifraga stolonifera ‘Tricolor’ thrives in moderate to high humidity. If your home is dry, consider placing it near a pebble tray with water or misting it occasionally to maintain humidity levels.
