The Aeschynanthus is a ravishing evergreen plant native to South-East Asia. It ranks among the most popular species when choosing an indoor trailing plant for home or the office.

Its thick and waxy foliage, along with its vibrant-colored flowers developing at two-thirds of the vine, make it an element of choice whether you hang it or sit it in a planter to enhance your décor.

MAINTENANCE

The Aeschynanthus thrives on humidity and heat, especially during summer months. Make sure it benefits from good luminosity, but keep it away from direct sun. As for watering, give it a drink when its soil dries up at the first third of the pot. Its foliage also appreciates being misted.

When you take possession of your plant, make sure you assess its watering needs. Before you give it a drink the first time, check the soil’s moisture level to verify whether or not it is moist near the surface. It is best to aerate the soil before the initial watering since it is often compacted to avoid shifting during transit. This also allows it to breathe and release moisture.

Rotate your plant periodically in order to encourage an even growth. Cleaning the leaves regularly will stimulate proper photosynthesis. As you wipe the foliage, inspect the leaves on either side to make sure there are no pests.
