Size: 40 - 50cm Heightt, 1PP

Light: Bright light is essential for good leaf color. Put your plant where it'll get plenty of light, but protect plant from hot midday sun, which may cause brown scorch marks on leaves. Filtered light from a south- or west-facing window will give it the light it needs.

Water: Keep the soil evenly moist year-round, but take care not to overwater. Soggy soil will cause Acalypha wilkesiana to wilt, and may lead to root rot. It's a good idea to use a pot with a drainage hole; water thoroughly, then empty drainage tray. Water less in winter, but don't allow Copperleaf plant to dry out or leaves may fall off.
