Product Description

Cyclanthus bipartitus, also recognized by names such as Two-Parted Cyclanthus, is a perennial herbaceous plant originating from South America. This plant is known for thriving in moist soils found in meadows, marshes, and wet forests. It's a species that adds ornamental value to gardens and indoor spaces, utilized for both its unique appearance and traditional medicinal applications. Cyclanthus bipartitus is celebrated for its small, white flowers that exude a sweet scent and produce red berries. The seeds of this plant are round and black, leading to thin and spindly seedlings​.

When cultivated, Cyclanthus bipartitus exhibits a growth habit that can reach up to 1 meter tall, preferring a moist and shady environment with some protection from direct sunlight. This plant is adaptable to both mild and cooler climates, provided it is planted in a well-draining potting mix that offers adequate aeration. For cooler regions, a blend of loam, peat, and perlite is recommended to insulate the plant against lower temperatures. An all-purpose fertilizer suited for acidic to slightly alkaline soils should be applied every spring to support its growth and flowering​.

Propagation can be achieved through seeds or cuttings, with seeds requiring sowing in a well-drained, sandy soil mix maintained in moist conditions. Cuttings should be allowed to dry before planting to enhance rooting success. This plant appreciates partial shade and can withstand some drought conditions, making it a versatile addition to a range of garden settings​​.

Cyclanthus bipartitus is an excellent choice for adding bright, exotic colors and ornamental foliage to landscapes and gardens. It serves as a low-maintenance, decorative element that can stand out in small gardens or hedges, providing an eye-catching focal point​​.
