Care and Maintenance Tips:

  • Soil: They prefer well-draining soil. If you're planting in containers, make sure there are drainage holes.
  • Watering: Ti plants enjoy consistent moisture but avoid overwatering. It's a balance game – the soil should be damp, not soggy.
  • Pruning: They require occasional pruning to get rid of any brown or yellowing leaves.
  • Fertilizer: Use a slow-release fertilizer during the growing season to ensure vibrant growth.



Uses in the Garden:

Whether you're looking to add a pop of color or want a unique accent plant, the Ti plant has you covered. With varieties like the "Black Magic," flaunting dark purple and green leaves, and the vibrant "Red Sister" and "Auntie Lou," your garden will be anything but ordinary. They're flexible, too – plant them in the ground or grow them in containers for a more movable tropical flair.

Pairing your Ti plant with complementary plants

Here are some plant ideas that harmonize well with the Ti plant and will create a more balanced and visually appealing garden

  1. Elephant Ears: With their massive, dramatic foliage, elephant ears offer an excellent contrast to the slender, upright posture of the Ti plant.
  2. Hibiscus: The tropical and bright flowers of the hibiscus plant can contrast or complement the vibrant leaves of the Ti plant, depending on the chosen color.
  3. Golden Pothos: If you're growing Ti plants in containers, letting golden pothos drape over the edges can create a beautiful multi-level effect.
  4. Bird of Paradise: With its striking orange and blue flowers, this plant provides a fantastic backdrop for the Ti plant.
  5. Ferns: The delicate, feathery fronds of ferns will complement the bolder, more substantial leaves of the Ti plant, providing a softer texture to the landscape.
  6. Crotons: Their colorful, variegated leaves can harmonize with the vivid hues of the Ti plant.
  7. Palms: Varieties like the pygmy date palm or areca palm can stand tall alongside the Ti plant, enhancing that tropical garden vibe.
  8. Hostas: Especially for those areas with a bit more shade, the wide, green, or variegated leaves of hostas can complement the narrower leaves of the Ti plant.
  9. Gingers: The colorful bracts and flowers of gingers, especially red or pink varieties, can match well with the tropical aesthetics of the Ti plant.

Try this combo for the shade!


Brighten up those shady areas next Spring with a container full of colorful plants. This recipe will do fantastic in dappled light conditions or even take a few hours of the morning sun. This design combines rich burgundy with deep pinks and bright shades of green for contrast.
