Plectranthus “Swedish Ivy” is a versatile and attractive houseplant native to South Africa, prized for its trailing stems and glossy, scalloped leaves that add lush greenery to any indoor space. Despite its common name, it is not a true ivy but belongs to the mint family, known for its resilience and ease of care. Ideal for hanging baskets or as a tabletop accent, this plant thrives in bright, indirect light but tolerates moderate shade. Maintain evenly moist soil, allowing the top inch to dry between waterings, and provide good drainage to prevent root rot. Regular misting or a humid environment supports its vibrant foliage. With minimal pruning to encourage bushier growth, Plectranthus “Swedish Ivy” is a rewarding choice for both novice and experienced plant enthusiasts seeking a low-maintenance yet elegant addition to their home.
