Acalypha hispida, the chenille plant, is a flowering shrub which belongs to the family Euphorbiaceae. They are also known as Philippine medusa and 'red hot cat tail' in English. - Wikipedia
The plant originated in tropical Asia. It can be grown outdoors, or cultivated as a house plant because of its attractiveness and brilliantly colored, furry flowers. The flowers grow in clusters along catkins. This feature is the primary reason the plant bears the nickname “red-hot cat tail”. The pistillates will grow all year long as long as the temperatures are favorable.
