Aeschynanthus Radicans (Lipstick Vine) is a tropical trailing plant with attractive green foliage and a naturally cascading growth habit. It is a good choice for hanging baskets or for displaying where the stems can grow and hang freely.

The plant is known for its red tubular flowers, which stand out nicely against the green leaves. With warm temperatures, good humidity, bright filtered light and a well-draining growing medium, it can make an attractive addition to a tropical plant collection.

Aeschynanthus radicans prefers regular watering during active growth, while allowing excess water to drain away. Avoid keeping the roots constantly wet.
