Alternanthera ficoidea 'Partytime' was found as the naturally-occurring branch mutation of an unidentified selection of Alternanthera ficoidea.

Our experience with Alternanthera ficoidea 'Partytime' found it did not spread as well as we expected and that is was generally slow to establish. For these reasons, we will plan to plant closer them together if they are used in the future.  Additionally, we also noticed caterpillars tended to eat it.
