Aeschynanthus Radicans 'Curly Rasta' has small, wavy leaves that are very close together, giving it the appearance of a twisted stem. We love this funky effect. Like all Aeschynanthus, it produces lipstick-shaped flowers. The 'Curly Rasta' variety has red flowers and glossy green leaves. Regular feeding and bright light are necessary for it to bloom. In optimal conditions, its flowering is abundant and can last all summer!
