Confetti White Hypoestes Seeds

Confetti White Hypoestes is a compact, colorful foliage annual grown for its heavily speckled white-and-green leaves. Also known as Polka Dot Plant, this variety brings bright contrast to containers, shade gardens, borders, and indoor displays. The crisp white spotting gives the plant a lively confetti-like appearance, making it especially useful for brightening areas where flowering annuals may not perform as well.

Garden Uses: Confetti White Hypoestes is excellent for containers, patio planters, window boxes, shade borders, edging, mixed foliage plantings, and houseplant displays. Its white-speckled leaves combine beautifully with begonias, coleus, impatiens, caladiums, ferns, and other shade-loving annuals. It is especially attractive in decorative pots where the bright foliage can be appreciated up close.

Growing Information: Start seeds indoors several weeks before the last frost date, or grow as a warm-season annual after temperatures have settled. Plant in bright shade, filtered light, or morning sun with afternoon shade. Hypoestes prefers rich, well-drained soil and steady moisture. Avoid allowing plants to dry out completely, especially in containers. Pinching the growing tips encourages a fuller, bushier plant and helps prevent legginess.
