Fun and full of flair, the Lipstick Plant (Aeschynanthus radicans) gets its name from its vibrant, tubular red blooms that peek out from dark, glossy foliage—resembling a tube of lipstick. This tropical trailing plant is perfect for hanging baskets or high shelves, where its cascading vines and bright flowers can shine. A great choice for adding a pop of colour and personality to your space.

Light Requirements
Thrives in bright, indirect light. Can tolerate some morning sun, but avoid harsh afternoon rays to prevent leaf scorch and flower drop.
Water Requirements
Water when the top inch of soil is dry. Prefers evenly moist soil but is sensitive to overwatering. Ensure proper drainage and avoid letting it sit in water.
Toxicity
Generally considered non-toxic to pets and humans. However, it's still best to discourage chewing to avoid any potential irritation.
