Snowbush Breynia disticha – Tropical Indoor Plant – 4 Inch Pot

The Snowbush Breynia disticha is a unique tropical plant that adds elegance to any indoor space. Known for its soft, round leaves with variegated green and white foliage, it mimics a snowy appearance while being well-suited for warm, indoor environments. This house plant is easy to maintain, tolerant of low light and occasional dry conditions, making it an excellent choice for busy plant lovers or those new to gardening.

This slow-growing plant develops a bushy, upright habit, reaching a mature height of 1 to 3 feet. It showcases striking cinnamon-red stems that beautifully contrast with the snow-like foliage, enhancing its visual appeal. The Snowbush thrives in bright shade to part sun, but protection from harsh afternoon light is recommended to maintain its vibrant color.

Ideal for indoor décor, fairy gardens, and miniature landscapes, this tropical plant also performs well outdoors in USDA Zones 9-11.
