DESCRIPTION
The Jatropha Podagrica, commonly known as the Buddha Belly Plant due to its distinctive swollen stem, belongs to the Euphorbiaceae family and originates from Central America. This plant is prized for its unique appearance, featuring a thick caudex and bright coral-red flowers that bloom year-round. It thrives in full sun to partial shade, making it adaptable to various indoor and outdoor environments. In Singapore's humid climate, it requires moderate watering, typically once a week, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings to prevent root rot. The Jatropha Podagrica is relatively easy to care for and is drought-tolerant, making it an excellent choice for both novice and experienced gardeners. However, it is important to note that this plant is toxic to pets if ingested. The plant dislikes excessive watering and low light conditions, which can lead to poor growth and root diseases. With the right care, the Jatropha Podagrica will thrive, adding a unique and exotic touch to your plant collection.
Important to know: As plants are natural products, form, pattern and colour will vary.
