Episcia cupreata ‘Platinum’ Flame Violet

Description

Episcia cupreata ‘Platinum’ is a tropical flame violet with luminous silver foliage, dark green veining, and warm tubular flowers. It spreads by runners and develops a soft trailing habit that suits shallow containers and hanging pots.

Light

Provide bright, indirect light to maintain the strongest silver coloration without scorching the soft leaves. Browse our tropical plant collection for other warm-growing houseplants.

Water and Humidity

Keep the potting mix lightly and evenly moist while allowing excess water to drain. Warm temperatures and moderate humidity help support compact growth and flowering.

Potting and Runners

Use a loose, well-drained mix in a shallow container. Let runners trail or pin young rosettes to the soil so they root and create a fuller plant.
