A vibrant, ornamental plant known for its glossy evergreen leaves and clusters of bright red berries that persist through the winter months. Ardisia crenata brings a bold pop of color and a refined, structured look to indoor spaces. Its neat, upright form and long-lasting berries make it a favorite for holiday décor, year-round visual interest, and brightening corners or tabletops.
Red Ardisia enjoys consistent care and performs best in bright, indirect light with steady moisture. Its berries add striking contrast against the deep green foliage, creating a naturally festive appearance even outside the holiday season.
