Strobilanthes anisophyllus Goldfussia

Minimum order quantity for this plant in 14cm pots is 3 units

Strobilanthes anisophyllus, also known as Goldfussia or Chinese Rain Bells, is a tropical evergreen shrub prized for its vibrant purple-bronze foliage and upright, compact habit. Growing to around 1.2 metres tall and wide, it produces small violet tubular flowers in spring and summer, adding seasonal charm to its year-round colour.

In Melbourne and Adelaide, it prefers a sheltered position with morning sun or bright dappled light, and protection from frost is essential. In Sydney and Brisbane, it performs well in part shade with good air circulation and thrives in rich, well-drained soils. Mulch well and keep moist during dry periods, but avoid waterlogging. Light pruning maintains a tidy form and encourages fresh growth.

It pairs beautifully with Cordyline australis, Philodendron Xanadu, and Ligularia reniformis, all offering complementary textures and foliage colours. Ideal for tropical-themed gardens, shaded borders, or as a striking foliage contrast in mixed plantings.
