Kashta Always Niko's fault.....

Could it be a sunset hygro? Click to expand... No it's not, Enrique. You can see the difference here... This is Sunset Hygro. The leaves turn pinkish at the top of the stem when it gets enough light. This is Alternanthera reineckii 'roseafolia.' The leaves are green on the top surface and pinkish on the bottom of the leaves.
