Aeschynanthus ‘Purple Star’ 4”—A Twisting Vine of Rich Color

Meet the Aeschynanthus ‘Purple Star’ 4”, a rare and captivating Lipstick Plant variety. Known for its elegant trailing vines, glossy green leaves, and deep purple, tubular blooms, this beauty brings a moody sophistication to any plant collection. Whether cascading from a shelf or hanging in a basket, ‘Purple Star’ thrives with minimal fuss and maximum impact.

The Nitty-Gritty (Plant Care):

• Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light—more light encourages better blooming!

• Water: Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings—avoid letting it sit in soggy soil.

• Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity—occasional misting keeps it lush.

What It’s Telling You:

• Happy Signs: Healthy, trailing vines with steady new growth and vibrant blooms.

• Needs TLC: Few or no flowers? Try increasing light. Yellowing leaves? It may be overwatered.

Good News for Pet Parents:

Not pet-safe—best to keep this beauty out of reach of curious pets.

Extra Love for Detail Lovers:
