Episcia ‘Corazon’, commonly known as Flame Violet, is a beautiful tropical plant known for its vibrant foliage and flowers. The leaves are velvety and can display a range of colors, including green, bronze, and silver, often with intricate patterns. It produces small, tubular flowers that can be red, pink, or orange, adding a splash of color to its lush foliage. This plant has a trailing habit, making it ideal for hanging baskets or as a ground cover in suitable climates.

  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. It can tolerate some shade but avoid direct sunlight as it can scorch the leaves.
  • Water: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry.
  • Humidity: Thrives in high humidity. Mist the plant regularly or place it on a humidity tray.
  • Temperature: Maintain a warm environment, ideally between 65-75°F (18-24°C). Protect it from cold drafts.
  • Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix, similar to what is used for African violets.
