USDA Plant Hardiness MapSmall plant 2-5 ftSemi-shadeShadeFull sunWatering: Moderate. Water when top soil feels dryWatering: Regular. Let topsoil dry slightlyOrnamental foliageThorny or spinyDeciduous plantSubtropical plant. Mature plant cold hardy at least to 30s F for a short time

Acanthus sp., also known as Acanthus, Bear's Breeches, grows in full sun to partial shade and will thrive in most soils, provided they are well-drained. It is a thinly branched unusual perennial with interesting foliage, basal clusters of oblong to lance-shaped glossy, dark green leaves reaching up to 12 inches long. The leaves have silver marks and wavy margins. It produces showy pink flowers in the summer to fall.

The plant needs regular watering, but should not be over watered, as this can lead to root rot. It is a deciduous plant so it will lose its leaves during the winter months. It is a somewhat spiny, but attractive plant. For colder regions, it is recommended to grow Acanthus in a pot and move them indoors once it gets too cold to leave the plant outside. In these cases the plant should be placed in a south-facing window and watered regularly.

Aeschynanthus radicans (Lipstick Plant) deep red tubular flower clusters nestled within thick waxy green foliage.

Botanical names: Aeschynanthus radicans, Aeschynanthus lobbianus

Common name: Lipstick Plant

Family: Gesneriaceae

Origin: Southeast Asia

USDA Zone: 9-11?

USDA Plant Hardiness MapGroundcover and low-growing 2ft plantVine or creeper plantSmall plant 2-5 ftSemi-shadeShadeWatering: Moderate. Water when top soil feels dryWatering: Regular. Let topsoil dry slightlyYellow, orange flowersRed, crimson, vinous flowers

Aeschynanthus is a large genus of Old World tropical herbs, similar to the genus Columnea in Central and South America. Both are often trailing epiphytes with large, showy flowers.

The appearance of the various Aeschynanthus species varies widely. The original "Lipstick Plant" has shiny, hard-surfaced leaves with bright red flowers that emerge from a dark red tubular calyx, resembling lipstick emerging from a tube. It is an epiphyte that grows in the angles of branches in the rainforest. As with all epiphytes, it does not live as a parasite on the tree, but takes its nourishment from fallen leaves and twigs that accumulate in the crevices of branches.

To care for the Lipstick Plant, it needs plenty of light but not direct sunlight. They thrive in summer heat, and winter temperatures should not drop below 60 degrees. It should be grown in semi-shade and needs regular or moderate water. If you live in a colder area, you can grow it in pots and make sure to water it regularly and keep the soil evenly moist.

Aeschynanthus sp. (Lipstick Plant) trailing stems with pointed green leaves and vibrant red tube shaped flowers.

Botanical name: Aeschynanthus sp.

Common names: Lipstick Plant, Lipstick Vine

Family: Gesneriaceae

Origin: Southeast Asia

USDA Zone: 9-10?

USDA Plant Hardiness MapGroundcover and low-growing 2ft plantVine or creeper plantSmall plant 2-5 ftShadeWatering: Moderate. Water when top soil feels dryWatering: Regular. Let topsoil dry slightlyYellow, orange flowersRed, crimson, vinous flowers

A very attractive flowering vine, that is mostly used in hanging pots. Water freely durning spring to fall, but keep the soil a little drier in the winter. The trailing stems can be 2ft long, so they may need pruning after flowering has finished. The plant tolerates most house temperatures. Ideal temperatures are 60 degrees at night but 10 to 15 degrees higher during the day. A. pulcher is one of the classic lipstick plants, and is similar to A. lobbianus -- except for the tan colored calyx.
