Lipstick plants are a beautiful flowering indoor plant prized for its shiny foliage and interesting flowers. It gets its name because the flower buds peek out of dark-colored tubes, looking like a miniature tube of lipstick. This tropical houseplant puts on a lovely display in front of a bright window and is an excellent choice for adding a splash of colour to brightly lit kitchens, bathrooms, and dining rooms.
Comes in a handy hanger pot for instant hanging happiness :) (The hanger is removable).
- Nursery pot size: 17cm (The hangpot has a lipped rim so choose a decorative pot with an opening of at least 18cm).
