This pretty ornamental pepper is a keen climber and is happy to have climbing supports on which it can grow upwards. Alternatively, it can also be cultivated in a hanging basket. Its stems are covered with fine hairs and its pink leaf markings, which are even more striking on mature plants, make it a real feast for the eyes.

Ben's tips on plant care:

- Location/light requirements: Bright, but avoid direct sunlight.
- Substrate: Ben's Premium Sphagnum moss, well-drained, nutrient-poor soil
- Temperature: optimal at 23-26° C (day), 18-20° C (night)
- Watering: Keep the substrate moist at all times and water with lukewarm, low-lime water, but avoid waterlogging.
- Humidity: requires moderately high humidity, spray regularly (leaves should be able to dry out afterwards!)
- Addition of nutrients: In spring/summer, feed moderately with liquid fertilizer approx. every 4-6 weeks.
- Repot approx. every 1-2 years when the plant has doubled in size.
