2 Purple Waffle Live Starter Plants – Bare Root Hemigraphis alternata

Add vibrant color and texture to your indoor plant collection with this set of 2 Purple Waffle live starter plants (Hemigraphis alternata). This tropical foliage plant is prized for its deeply textured, crinkled leaves with rich green upper surfaces and striking purple undersides, making it an eye-catching addition to terrariums, decorative containers, and houseplant collections.

Each order includes 2 live starter plants with fully established root systems. Plants are cultivated in 2-inch nursery pots during production but are shipped bare root to reduce shipping costs and minimize transit stress. Nursery pots are not included. Each plant is shipped with its soil pod intact. Please do not remove or disturb the soil pod upon arrival to help minimize root disturbance.

The smaller starter plants shown are representative of what you will receive. Natural variation in foliage color, leaf texture, veining, and overall appearance should be expected.

Plant Condition Disclosure:

Live plants may be shipped dormant, leafless, recently pruned, bare root, or partially defoliated depending on season, weather, and shipping requirements.

Natural variation in size, branching, foliage density, color, root structure, and overall appearance should be expected.

Important Note:

You will receive a live starter plant (seedling/young plant). Listing photos show the plant at a mature stage for reference only. The actual plant size, shape, and appearance may vary and will be significantly smaller than the images shown.
