Noteworthy Characteristics
Perhaps one of the most versatile tropical plants we offer. Trinette is a variegated arboricola that is a gardener's dream plant. It's bright yellow and green foliage is showy, it's easy-to-grow and easy to care for, and very versatile; thriving in either sun or shade! The plant grows to 6 feet tall but is one of the easiest plants to trim to keep at almost any size. No problem keeping it to as small as 3 feet by 3 feet.
Uses
Trinette Arboricola is useful as a colorful accent or specimen shrub, as a hedge, in foundation plantings, or in containers. Where not winter hardy, it can be used outdoors as a container plant that can be overwintered indoors or in a greenhouse when low temperatures drop below 50 degrees. Excellent year round houseplant anywhere!
