Plant Height – 4 to 8 inches

Alternanthera Brasiliana is a vibrant ornamental shrub with rich purple to deep burgundy foliage that adds bold colour and contrast to any garden. Its bushy growth and striking leaves make it ideal for borders, mass plantings, or feature spots in landscape designs.

This plant thrives in full sun to partial shade and is well-suited to Sri Lankan conditions. It prefers well-draining soil and regular watering to keep the foliage lush.

Light pruning encourages fuller growth, and feeding with a balanced fertilizer every 4-6 weeks will maintain its vivid colour and healthy appearance.
