Flowering Plant
Its intriguing and enigmatic charm made this plant earn its 'Mona Lisa' name.
This beautiful trailing plant with deep green foliage and lush red flowers will keep you mesmerized and contemplative. Its flowers are surrounded by dark green leaves, as though coming out of a dark tube; hence the moniker Lipstick Plant.

- Easy Placement and Easy Care: Provided with a detachable hanger, it's a breeze to display, whether hung or in a decorative pot and thrives effortlessly.

- Low-Light Tolerance: Thrives in indirect light, making it versatile for various indoor settings.
Lipstick Plant 'Mona Lisa' Care Guide
Light
Love bright light but not direct sunlight - it scorches its leaves.
Water
Better to keep soil on the dry side but please never leave it totally dry. It can withstand a certain amount of drought but not overwatering, so please don't let it sit in water. It is also partial to regular misting.
Temperature
Happy with normal room temperature but keep it away from hot or cold draughts please.
Feeding
Feed it with regular liquid fertiliser during spring and summer every 2-3 weeks.
Grooming
The best time to prune is after the flowering season. Keep stems from getting straggly to encourage thicker growth. Or, just pick off any dry leaves and let it grow wild!
Care
The most common issue is leaf-drop - if more than the top inch of its soil is dry, please water it more. If you notice yellow leaves, it probably needs more light.
