Chain Plant Callisia fragrans 2.5”—A Botanical Performer in Your Home Stage

Meet the Chain Plant Callisia fragrans 2.5”, a plant that’s as thoughtful as you are. With juicy, spoon-shaped leaves on stretching stems, this quirky crawler brings texture and movement to any small space. Its glossy green foliage and gentle growth habit make it perfect for windowsills, desktops, or terrariums that need a little spunk.

Also known in some circles as the “Basket Plant” or even “Inch Plant’s chill cousin,” it’s low-maintenance and fast-growing—with a reputation for being as helpful as it is handsome (some cultures even grow it for its soothing, medicinal properties).

The Nitty-Gritty (Plant Care):

• Light: Bright, indirect light will keep it lush and lively. A bit of morning sun is fine, but full sun can scorch those pretty leaves.

• Water: Let the top inch of soil dry between waterings. It’s a succulent-ish creeper—so it likes a drink, but not a soak.

• Humidity: Totally chill with average household humidity. A mist now and then? Bonus points.

What It’s Telling You:

• Happy Signs: Glossy leaves and long, trailing stems = a thriving Chain Plant.

• Needs TLC: Pale or leggy growth usually means it’s craving more light. Yellowing? Ease up on the watering.

Good News for Pet Parents:

Sadly, no—Callisia fragrans is not pet-safe. Keep out of reach from pets who love a leafy snack.

Extra Love for Detail Lovers:

• The 2.5” size refers to the diameter of the nursery pot—this little guy’s just getting started.

• Your Chain Plant will arrive in its nursery pot—any ceramics or styling extras shown are just for inspiration.

• Photographed in-house at 3B’s Flowers in Stony Plain, Alberta. Each plant will have its own shape and quirks—that’s the beauty of real-life greenery.

Symbolism with Style:

The Chain Plant is all about connection, adaptability, and quiet growth. It’s a sweet gesture for new friendships, fresh starts, or your own reminder that slow, steady progress is still progress.
