Stromanthe Sanguinea

Botanical Name: Stromanthe sanguinea

Common Name(s): Tricolor, Bloodleaf, Stromanthe

The Stromanthe Sanguinea, also known as Tricolor or Bloodleaf, is a stunning ornamental plant known for its striking foliage. It features vibrant green leaves with dramatic pink, white, and red variegation that gives it a colorful, tropical appearance. The undersides of the leaves are a deep red, adding an extra layer of beauty when the leaves curl or move. This plant is perfect for brightening up indoor spaces with its bold, exotic look.

Stromanthe Sanguinea prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions. It thrives in well-draining, slightly acidic soil and should be watered regularly to keep the soil consistently moist. However, it is important not to overwater, as it can lead to root rot. It also prefers higher humidity levels, making it an ideal choice for kitchens, bathrooms, or other spaces with moisture in the air. This plant benefits from regular misting or placement on a humidity tray to keep it happy.

Air Purifying Qualities:

  • Toxin Removal: Stromanthe Sanguinea is effective at removing common indoor air pollutants such as formaldehyde and benzene, making it a great addition for improving indoor air quality.
  • Oxygen Production: Like many tropical plants, Stromanthe Sanguinea absorbs carbon dioxide and releases oxygen, which can enhance the air quality in your living or working space.
  • Humidity Regulation: This plant thrives in higher humidity, and through natural transpiration, it can slightly raise the moisture level in the air, making it beneficial for dry indoor environments.

Note: Stromanthe Sanguinea is non-toxic to pets (cats and dogs), making it a safe plant for homes with curious animals. However, it’s always a good idea to monitor pets around plants to avoid accidental ingestion.

Care Insights & Expert Tips

  1. Fertilize regularly: Feed your Stromanthe with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength every 4-6 weeks during spring and summer.
  2. Monitor for pests: Keep an eye out for common houseplant pests like mealybugs and spider mites. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
  3. Repot as needed: Repot your Stromanthe every 1-2 years in a slightly larger pot with fresh, well-draining potting mix.
  4. Prayer plant movement: Stromanthe is a prayer plant, meaning its leaves fold up at night and open in the morning.
  5. Provide adequate drainage: Ensure the pot has drainage holes to prevent waterlogging.

FAQs

Do you have a return or replacement policy for plants?

Due to the perishable nature of plants, we do not accept returns based on personal preference. Shipping live plants back and forth can cause unnecessary stress and jeopardize the health of the plant. We encourage customers to choose carefully before placing an order. Our risk-free, 30-day customer guarantee covers cases where plants arrive damaged, dead, sick, or incorrect items were sent. We will send you a replacement plant or provide a refund.

If there’s an issue with your order, please notify us within 30 days so we can address the issue as quickly as possible. To learn more, visit 30-Day Customer Guarantee. Refunds will be processed to the card or account used for your purchase and will typically be available in your bank in 3-5 business days from the date it was issued.

Can I order and receive plants during the winter?

Yes, we ship plants year-round! Our shipments are carefully packaged to ensure we deliver healthy plants to your door every day of the year. We monitor the weather across the country and will include heat packs at no extra charge to keep your plants warm during shipping. If weather conditions are extreme (e.g., storm or severe winter), we will inform you of an updated delivery date that we believe is more appropriate.

How can I change my order details?

If I order more than one plant, will they ship separately?

Items apart of the same order typically ship together. In rare circumstances, the items may ship from both our Southern California and Florida greenhouses and could arrive in separate packages at different times. For these instances, once each item is shipped, you'll receive individual tracking information for each package, so you can easily track their progress.

Where do you ship?

We currently ship to the contiguous United States which consists of the 48 U.S. states and the District of Columbia.

Do you offer same-day or next-day delivery?

Unfortunately, we do not offer same-day or next-day delivery. Plants require careful preparation and packaging to ensure they arrive healthy and in optimal condition, we take the necessary time to pack them properly. This ensures that your plants are shipped safely and arrive ready to thrive.
