Got a large red congo for 16.99 at a big box store! They had a very large pink princess for the same price, but my husband has me on a tight leash 😅😫

Excited to baby my new dude and rehab it into the prince he deserves to be🤴

I love my Red Congo. Its temperament is strong even through a winter outside LA. The red stems are glorious. My favorite part!

Yeah it’s so striking! It definitely has a lot neglect and damage but I hope I can help heal it…I hope moving it indoors won’t make the red dramatically fade 🫥

Rescue plants are always so rewarding! I hope he does well in his new home!
