The Chenille Plant (Acalypha hispida), also known as Red-Hot Cattail, is a tender tropical and is often used as a houseplant. With it’s cascading branches, it is a great plant for a hanging basket. I have mine outside where it gets partial sun and must be watered often. The bright red blooms look like fuzzy caterpillars and can get as long as 12 inches. Click photos to enlarge.
