Goldfish Plant ‘Shady Lady Heidy’ (Nematanthus hybrid)

Goldfish Plant ‘Shady Lady Heidy’ is a tropical houseplant known for its glossy foliage, cascading growth habit, and distinctive tubular flowers that resemble tiny goldfish. The colourful blooms emerge among the dense foliage, creating an eye-catching display that gives the Goldfish Plant its memorable common name.

‘Shady Lady Heidy’ belongs to the Nematanthus group, members of the Gesneriaceae family and relatives of African violets.

With appropriate light and care, Goldfish Plants can produce repeated flushes of their characteristic blooms.
