The Best Houseplants with Pink Leaves

You’ll be tempted to place these Pretty Pink Houseplants in every nook and cranny of your home since they are so gorgeous! Choose your favorite and bring it inside:

Pretty Pink Caladium

The arum (Araceae) family includes the caladiums (Caladium species), which are indigenous to Central and South America. Caladiums should only be planted as annuals in South Carolina gardens because they are only hardy to USDA zones 9 or 10. The ornamental, multicolored foliage of these tropical foliage plants is what makes them popular. They provide summer color in shaded areas throughout the state and do well in heat and humidity and are utilized in containers, borders, or as bedding plants.

Caladium leaves have colored midribs, contrasting backgrounds and borders, and come in shades of red, pink, green, and/or white. Caladiums have a wide range of uses in the landscape due to their numerous leaf designs and colors. The leaves grow straight from the tuber on long petioles rather than having stems.

Pink Polka Dot Plant

Common indoor plants with vibrant foliar displays include polka dot plants (Hypoestes phyllostachya). They undergo extensive hybridization, resulting in a range of leaf spotting colors and patterns. This indoor plant, sometimes known as a freckle face plant, can grow in any indirect light, but lower light levels produce the greatest color.

The leaves of the most popular polka-dot plants have a pink background and green spots. The plants stand out even more thanks to a number of spotted or mottled variants that have purple, white, red, and other deeper hues as well as a sharper contrast.

Crassula pellucida variegata

 

Calico Kitten (Crassula pellucida f. variegata): A pink, green, and cream variegated Crassula. Long, slender stems with layered heart-shaped leaves that gradually grow to the ground are present. This is a great option for container arrangements or hanging baskets as a “spiller.” The pink pigments get darker when exposed to direct sunlight.

The leaves are a mixture of several tones of pinks and creams, as well as various shades of green, ranging from pale green to yellow-green. When the plant is really dry, the leaves can develop fuschia and purple tones as well as deep purple colours. The plant trails and looks fantastic in tall planters or hanging baskets. They grow cheery, little white flowers.

Snow White Waffle Plant

HEMIGRAPHIS ALTERNATA ‘SNOW WHITE’

When grown outdoors in warm climates, it creates eye-catching ground cover. Small white flowers with five lobes grow in racemes that are 1″ in height throughout the summer. Flowers are not important.

Aloe

An easy-to-care-for, eye-catching succulent that grows well indoors is the aloe vera plant. Aloe vera plants are helpful as well because the juice from their leaves can be administered topically to treat the discomfort associated with burns and scrapes. How to cultivate and take care of aloe vera plants at home is provided here.

Aloe Vera turns pink when exposed to too much sunlight. Your plant will become burned and begin to suffer if it receives too much direct sunlight. Other frequent causes of an aloe vera becoming pink are inadequate watering, excessive heat, salt, and cold exposure.

Sedum rubrotinctum

Sedum rubrotinctum, often known as jelly bean (Clausen), is a well-known soft sedum from Mexico. Round, fleshy leaves of this stem-borne plant spiral up the stalk. It ranges in hue from green to red, with the pigments that shine the most when grown in direct sunshine. It adds a gorgeous splash of color to potted displays.

Imperial Red Philodendron

a shrub with thick, beautiful foliage and broad, oval, leathery leaves. Bright crimson when young, burgundy red-purple as they mature, and finally a dark glossy green as they finish growing. The habit of the Philodendron Imperial Red is compact and bushy.

a fantastic low-maintenance choice that is also shade-tolerant. Ideal for improving the aesthetics and air quality of a house or workplace.

Anthurium andraeanum (Anthurium andraeanum)

 

The Flamingo Lily, or Anthurium andraeanum, is a herbaceous evergreen that reaches a height of 40 cm. Glossy, heart-shaped, dark green leaves are present. A waxy red spathe and a cream-colored spadix that like a tail make up the inflorescence. Flamingo lilies are common houseplants due to their frequent flowering, tolerance of partial shade, and ability to generate spathes in a variety of colors and sizes through cultivation.

This flamingo-flower-inspired Anthurium is a vibrant pink that lives up to its moniker. The world’s longest blooming houseplant, anthuriums are hardly ever without their eye-catching blooms. With adequate care, each bloom can last up to eight weeks, and additional ones will frequently emerge.

 Earth Star

 

About 55 species of the genus Cryptanthus are terrestrial, meaning they grow on the ground naturally, however they can thrive in a variety of growth environments. The low-spreading rosettes of 8–20 leaves on cryptanthus’ wavy, star-shaped foliage come in a wide range of colors from different species and hybrids. The majority have distinct white, bronze, and gray bands, and others have background foliage that is vividly pink to crimson. The center and the spaces between the leaves are where the white, pale green, or pink blooms bloom.
