Fittonia Red

The Mosaic Plant, also known as Fittonia Red, is a popular houseplant that is native to the tropical rainforests of South America. It is a small, low-growing plant that typically reaches a height of only 6-12 inches. The leaves of the Mosaic Plant are its most striking feature, with their intricate patterns of veins that resemble a mosaic. The leaves are typically green with pink or red veins, although there are also varieties with white or silver veins.

The Mosaic Plant is a relatively easy plant to care for, making it a popular choice for beginners. It prefers bright, indirect light and moist soil, but can tolerate lower light levels and occasional drying out. It is important to avoid overwatering the plant, as this can lead to root rot.

The Mosaic Plant is often used in terrariums and other indoor gardens, as it adds a pop of color and texture to any space. It is also a popular choice for offices and other workspaces.
