Care & tips for the Aeschynanthus Japhrolepis hanging plant - 40 cm
The Aeschynanthus Japhrolepis is a relatively easy houseplant that will grow and flower generously with the right care. Give the hanging plant a warm spot and keep it away from draughts and big swings in temperature. Trim off spent flowers and any long shoots to encourage full, compact growth. With enough light and a little attention, you'll enjoy its elegant trailing stems for a long time.
How much water does the Aeschynanthus Japhrolepis hanging plant - 40 cm need?
The Aeschynanthus likes lightly moist potting soil, but it doesn't like wet feet. Let the top layer of soil dry out a little between waterings before you water again. During the growing season the plant needs slightly more water than it does in winter.
How much light does the Aeschynanthus Japhrolepis hanging plant - 40 cm need?
The Aeschynanthus Japhrolepis is happiest in a spot with plenty of bright indirect light. Direct afternoon sun can damage the leaves, while a spot that is too dark will reduce flowering. A place by an east- or west-facing window is often ideal for healthy growth.
Is the Aeschynanthus Japhrolepis hanging plant - 40 cm toxic?
The Aeschynanthus Japhrolepis is not toxic to pets or children. That makes this hanging plant a safe choice for households with curious four-legged friends or young children.
