Leopard Plant Care

Farfugium japonicum

The Tractor Seat Plant, also known as the Leopard Plant or Farfugium japonicum, thrives in partial to full shade, making it an ideal choice for areas with limited direct sunlight. Exposure to too much sun can lead to leaf wilting and burning, so providing the right level of shade is crucial for its well-being.

As for watering, these shade-loving perennials have a penchant for moisture, making them well-suited for wet areas. To meet their hydration needs, regular irrigation is essential, especially in the absence of frequent rainfall. A deep soaking at least once a week ensures that the Tractor Seat Plant remains adequately hydrated and flourishes in its preferred shady environment.

The tractor seat plant is rated for Zones 8 to 10.
