Nematanthus Goldfish Plant has beautiful glossy thick leaves and blooms profusely with orange goldfish shape flowers. One of the most beautiful plants I have grown.
When young the plant grows upright. As it ages it will tend to trail. Loves a more pot bound situation, repot in spring if you feel it has outgrown it’s surroundings.
