Acalypha Raggedy Anne has very large foliage which is a fantastic red colour. This plant is excellent for screening and really stands out in your garden with it's autumn colours - a must have for winter colour in your garden! When the light catches the foliage it's nearly on fire, one of my favourites!

Acalypha Raggedy Anne is part of the Euphorbe family and is extremely tough and drought hardy. They are excellent for Australian gardens, although best in a frost free position. Excellent for screening due to it's bushy growth habit, and looks wonderful in pots. Very easy to look after!

Acalypha Raggedy Anne grows to around 3m tall but is easily trimmed or pruned to shape. Pruning from early on when the plant is young encourages branching and makes it even better for hedging or screening.

Supplied as:

Plants, 20-30cm tall. See photo inside description, on the left.

 

Common names:

Copper Leaf, Fijian Fire Plant, Fire Plant, Three-sided Mercury, Beefsteak Plant

I'm using this as a screen in Logan, Brisbane and it's incredibly fast growing, stunning colours and nice and thick.

The colours looked extra special all autumn! I see why the Acalypha Raggedy Anne is also called the Fire Plant. A perfect addition to my garden. Great colours, thank you again.
