This marvelous native of Cuba has long been prized for containers and hanging baskets. Acalypha pendula has been one of our summer favorite flowering plants. The 8" tall x 2" wide clumps of small, fuzzy green leaves are adorned all summer with 5-7" long, trailing, fuzzy red cattails. Prefers full sun or morning sun. Indoors grow in a south, west or east window. Keep evenly moist, not wet or dry. Trim off the faded cat tails to keep it blooming.
