Cascading stems of fleshy green leaves create a lush foliage effect all year round, but the show really starts in summer when this trailer’s spectacular red tubular flowers open, emerging from darker cases (sepals) like bright lipsticks.

From spring to autumn, apply tepid rainwater or distilled water when the top of the compost feels dry. Keep it a little drier in winter. Mist every day or two. |
ADDITIONAL CARE
If you notice a tip or edge burn often with a yellowish hue at the edge, especially on older leaves, it could be due to your tap water. To solve this, allow your tap water to stand overnight before watering so the chlorine and fluoride can evaporate. Remove any yellow leaves to keep your plant strong and growing. Do not use any shine products on the leaves, instead, clean leaves occasionally with a damp cloth
