Lipstick tree, also known as Achiote, Roucou, Achiotillo, Bixa orellana
Lipstick tree is a tropical plant known for its resiliency and straightforward care requirements. Key care needs include providing full sun exposure and ensuring well-draining soil to accommodate its preference for warm and humid climates. A special care point is to manage regular but moderate watering, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between waterings to prevent root rot. Pruning to shape the plant can encourage bushier growth.
