Also known as Lollipop Plant or Lollipop Shrimp Plant. A lush, long-blooming tropical plant whose name derives from its unusual, overlapping flower bracts, somewhat resembling a shrimp. Produces tubular white blooms at the top of the flower spike. A container-friendly plant that can be grown indoors or outdoors (with indirect sunlight).
