Pedilanthus Plant

The scientific name for this plant, Pedilanthus tithymaloides, means foot-shaped flower. The plant is native to the American tropic. It makes a superb houseplant with its 2 foot (61 cm) height.

There are numerous fun and descriptive names for the devil’s backbone houseplant. In an effort to describe the blooms, devil’s backbone has been called red bird flower, Persian lady slipper, and also Japanese poinsettia. Descriptive monikers for the foliage include rick rack plant and Jacob’s ladder.

Pedilanthus Plant Growing Guideline:

How to Grow the Devil’s Backbone Plant:

Growing the plant is easy and propagation even simpler. Just cut a 4 to 6 inch (10-15 cm.) section of the stem from the plant. Let the cut end callus for a few days and then insert it into a pot filled with perlite. Keep the perlite lightly moist until the stems root. Then repot the new plants in a good houseplant potting soil. Care of devil’s backbone babies is the same as the adult plants.

Growing Pedilanthus Indoors:

Devil’s backbone houseplant likes bright indirect sunlight. Plant in direct sun in fall and winter, but give it a little protection from stinging hot rays in spring and summer. Just turning the slats on your blinds can be enough to keep the tips of the leaves from sizzling. Water the plants when the top few inches (8 cm.) of soil feels dry. Keep it only moderately moist, yet not soggy.

The plant produces the best growth with a once per month fertilizer solution diluted by half. Devil’s backbone houseplant does not need to be fed in the dormant seasons of fall and winter. Choose a draft free location in the home when growing Pedilanthus indoors. It doesn’t tolerate cold breezes, which can kill off the tips of the growth.

Long Term Care of Devil’s Backbone:

Repot your plant every three to five years or as needed, in a rich houseplant mix with plenty of sand also mixed in to increase drainage. Use unglazed pots, which allow excess moisture to freely evaporate and prevent wet root damage.

Unchecked plants may get up to 5 feet (1.5 m.) in height. Prune off any problem branches and trim back lightly in late winter to keep the plant in good form.
