White Candles Shrimp Plant is a shade-loving tropical plant with elongated dark green foliage and clusters of tiny pure white flowers with exaggerated white bracts that bloom from mid summer into fall. Grows best with partial shade and rich, moist well drained soils. As White Candles takes a season to establish before optimal blooming begins, it is best as a houseplant unless in the hardiness zones.
