Red Fittonia (Fittonia verschaffeltii) is a captivating and compact houseplant known for its vibrant red veins that stand out against its dark green leaves. This 2-inch plant is perfect for adding a pop of color to small spaces, such as terrariums, miniature gardens, or as a charming desktop plant. The striking red patterns on the leaves create a bold contrast that enhances any indoor environment.

The Red Fittonia thrives in low to moderate light conditions, making it ideal for areas with indirect sunlight. It requires a humid environment to maintain its vibrant appearance, so it’s beneficial to keep the plant in a terrarium or use a humidity tray. Regular watering is necessary to keep the soil consistently moist, but be sure not to overwater. Allow the top layer of soil to dry out slightly between waterings to prevent root rot.

With its eye-catching red veins and ease of care, the Red Fittonia is a delightful addition to any plant collection. Its compact size and unique color make it an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced plant enthusiasts looking to brighten up their indoor spaces.
