Hello,
I bought a plant recently that I really like, but I forgot what it is
called. The name is something like strobilenta, or similar. It is a
non-direct sun/bright indoor plant with green and purple pointed
leaves. Here is a picture of it:

I want to find the name so that I can find the correct care instuctions
for this plant. I would greatly appreciate any help you can give.

Thanks,
Helen

I grow them indoors and outdoors. With rich, moist soil, they'll handle full
sun all day long, and develop amazing color that way. In partial shade, the
color's less intense, but still impressive.
