Native to South Africa, Madagascar and South East Asia, Hypoestes Phyllostachya is a colourful evergreen shrub commonly called Polka Dot Plant or Freckle Face Plant. It's a great way to add a splash of colour to your home or garden throughout spring. The 'White Splash' variety displays enviable variegation, with a mixture of green and white tones that make this plant a must for any foliage fanatic. To achieve the best colour and to stop your plant getting too leggy, keep it in a brightly-lit position.

• Feed early in the growing season.
• Keep soil moist but not too wet.
• Suitable for hanging baskets or grouping together in a large pot.
