Aeschynanthus marmoratus 15cm
Aeschynanthus marmoratus, commonly known as the "Zebra Basket Vine" or "Zebra Plant," is an intriguing species of Aeschynanthus known for its distinctive foliage. The elliptical or lance-shaped leaves are glossy and feature a striking mix of dark green and silver-grey markings with a red reverse.
It thrives in bright, indirect light. Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight, as this can scorch its delicate leaves. Maintain a consistent temperature between 18-24 degrees Celsius for optimal growth in the summer but slightly cooler in winter. Keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged, and ensure proper drainage to prevent root rot. Mist regularly or place in a humid room like a bathroom.
This plant's unique aesthetics make it a fantastic choice for those looking to add an eye-catching and unusual touch to their indoor plant collection. Regular pruning can help maintain its compact, bushy shape. Apply a balanced liquid feed during the growing season to promote healthy foliage and occasional flowers.
