Goldfish Plant 'Christmas Holly' (Nematanthus hybrid)

Goldfish are in the columnea family and come from the tropical areas of Central and South America. This vining plant has unusually-shaped blooms in reds, yellows, and oranges that make for a lovely hanging basket. Goldfish have a reputation for being fussy plants, but a little care to give them enough indirect light and not too much water goes a long way to help these exotic plants thrive

This year-round bloomer performs most impressively in midwinter when its small, waxy shiny leaves are covered with pumpkin-orange, goldfish-shaped blossoms. Goldfish plants got their name because of their masses of red-orange flowers that appear in the spring and summer and look a bit like leaping goldfish.

Recommendations for growing success:

Light: Bright indirect sunlight

Watering: During the summer, water generously and keep the soil continuously moist. In the winter, cut back on the water and allow the soil to become slightly dry.

Soil: Use well draining soil
