Lipstick Plant ‘Bolero Bicolore’ (Aeschynanthus radicans)

Lipstick Plant ‘Bolero Bicolore’ (Aeschynanthus radicans) is a vibrant tropical houseplant known for its glossy trailing foliage and distinctive tubular flowers. The plant produces striking red and yellow bicolour blooms that emerge from dark buds, resembling a tube of lipstick as they open. These colourful flowers contrast beautifully against the deep green leaves, creating a dramatic and ornamental display.

This tropical epiphytic plant naturally grows as a trailing or cascading vine, making it ideal for hanging baskets, elevated planters, and shelves where its stems can spill gracefully over the edges. The thick, slightly waxy leaves help retain moisture, while the plant’s arching growth habit adds softness and movement to indoor plant displays.

The ‘Bolero Bicolore’ cultivar is particularly valued for its vivid flower colouring and compact growth habit. When grown in bright indoor conditions, it can produce repeated blooming cycles throughout the year, making it a favourite among collectors of flowering tropical houseplants.
