Farfugium aureomaculatum - 100mm

Bring bold foliage and unique colour into your garden with Farfugium aureomaculatum, an eye-catching ornamental plant loved for its large, glossy green leaves splashed with bright yellow-gold markings. Each leaf develops its own natural pattern, giving the plant a striking, tropical look.

Perfect for shaded gardens, patios, courtyards and feature pots, Farfugium aureomaculatum performs best in bright filtered light or part shade. Its rounded foliage makes it an excellent choice for adding texture and colour to darker garden spaces where many flowering plants may struggle.

Keep the soil consistently moist but well drained, especially during warmer Australian weather. Protect the plant from strong afternoon sun, which can scorch the leaves and reduce their attractive colour.

Common Questions

Does Farfugium aureomaculatum like full sun?
It is best grown in bright filtered light or part shade. Strong afternoon sun may scorch the leaves.

Can I grow it in a pot?
Yes. Farfugium aureomaculatum grows very well in pots with good drainage and quality potting mix.

How often should I water it?
Water when the top layer of soil begins to dry. Keep the soil slightly moist but never constantly waterlogged.

Is every plant marked the same?
No. The amount and pattern of yellow colouring can naturally vary between individual plants and leaves.

Can it be grown outdoors?
Yes. It is suitable for protected outdoor areas, shaded patios, courtyards and garden beds.

Why are the leaves different from the display photo?
Farfugium aureomaculatum is a living plant, so leaf size, shape, colour and yellow markings naturally vary. 

As plants are living products, individual specimens may naturally vary in size, growth stage, number of canes and overall appearance.

The succulent plant housed in the black pot comes in a 100mm diameter container. While the image provides a representative depiction of what you will receive, but may vary slightly because no two succulents are the same.
