Care & tips for the Aeschynanthus Rasta - 50 cm
The Aeschynanthus Rasta is a graceful hanging plant with curly leaves, also known as the lipstick plant. It's easy to look after as long as you keep a few basic rules in mind. It likes a constant temperature and high humidity. Ideally, give it a spot where it can hang freely or place it in a tall pot so its trailing stems can cascade down beautifully.
How much water does the Aeschynanthus Rasta - 50 cm need?
The soil of the Aeschynanthus can stay slightly moist. Let the top layer of potting soil dry out a little before watering again. Never let the roots sit in standing water, as this plant really doesn't like that.
How much light does the Aeschynanthus Rasta - 50 cm need?
This plant prefers a bright spot, but out of direct sunlight. A place with plenty of indirect light is perfect. In a room that's too dark, growth will slow and the trailing stems may lose their vigour. Too much sun can scorch the leaves.
Is the Aeschynanthus Rasta - 50 cm toxic?
The Aeschynanthus Rasta is not toxic, so it's safe for children and pets.
