Product Details
The Aeschynanthus marmortaus t is a true conversation starter, admired for its beautifully patterned foliage and graceful cascading stems. Its olive-green leaves are intricately marbled with silvery markings, while the undersides reveal rich burgundy-purple tones, creating a striking display from every angle. Whether placed on a shelf or allowed to spill elegantly from a hanging planter, this unique beauty adds texture, colour and character to any indoor space.
As if its remarkable foliage wasn't enough, this fascinating plant may also reward you with vibrant tubular orange-red flowers that emerge from the tips of its stems, giving rise to its popular name, the Lipstick Plant. Easy to grow and wonderfully rewarding, it's the perfect choice for plant lovers looking for something a little more unusual that remains easy to care for.

• Beautiful silver-marbled foliage with rich burgundy undersides
• Graceful trailing vines perfect for shelves and hanging planters
• May produce striking lipstick-shaped orange-red blooms when mature
• Easy to care for and a unique addition to any indoor plant collection
Plant care
Bright, indirect light is ideal. A little gentle morning sun is beneficial, but avoid harsh afternoon sunlight, which can scorch the leaves. Brighter conditions also encourage flowering.
Allow the top 2–3 cm of soil to dry before watering. Water thoroughly, then allow excess water to drain away completely. Reduce watering slightly during winter.
Best placed out of reach of curious pets and small children, as chewing the leaves may cause mouth irritation and stomach discomfort.
