Hypoestes are delicate care-free annuals that make a spectacular ground cover or border plant. Seeds sprout easily and plants grow quickly, requiring very little pruning or maintenance. They prefer partial shade and will reseed freely in warmer climates to come back the following spring. The Hypoestes Splash series have been bred for easy seed germination and improved heat tolerance. Grow as a perennial houseplant or an annual outdoor plant in zones 3 - 8. May grow as a perennial in USDA zone 9.
