{"product_id":"shrimp-red-plant","title":"Shrimp Red Plant","description":"\n\u003cp\u003e\n  The Shrimp Plant (\u003cem\u003eJusticia brandegeeana\u003c\/em\u003e) is a tropical perennial known for its unique, drooping, shrimp-like bracts in red, pink, or yellow, which hide small white flowers that attract hummingbirds and butterflies. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and well-drained, fertile soil, and is popular in gardens (zones 9–11) and containers, requiring regular pruning to stay bushy and prevent legginess. It's sensitive to frost but regrows from roots in spring in cooler climates, and can be overwintered indoors.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Characteristics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAppearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Features colorful bracts (modified leaves) that look like shrimp, with small white flowers emerging from them.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColors:\u003c\/strong\u003e Common varieties include red, pink, and yellow (golden shrimp plant).\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePollinators:\u003c\/strong\u003e Attracts hummingbirds and butterflies.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eToxicity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Non-toxic to pets.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGrowing Conditions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full sun to partial shade (morning sun is ideal).\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rich, well-drained, and moist; amend with compost.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater:\u003c\/strong\u003e Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged; mulch helps retain moisture.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tropical; protect from frost.
