I wait all year for this vine to bloom!

New Guinea Creeper, Tecomanthe dendrophila

🌸 I wait all year for this vine to bloom!



It's this time of the year when beautiful Tecomanthe is opening her majestic blooms!
The New Guinea Creeper (Tecomanthe dendrophila) is a stunning, non-aggressive vine that will captivate with its vibrant blooms and lush foliage.
  • 🌸 New Guinea Creeper, Tecomanthe dendrophila, is one of those plants that changes the whole garden when it blooms. Winter doesn’t have to be boring! In early winter through spring, it covers itself in large trumpet-shaped flowers with deep pink tubes and creamy white tips. The display lasts weeks, not days!
  • 🌸 Unlike many flowering vines, this one is well-behaved. It climbs without taking over, stays glossy and evergreen year-round, and works beautifully on trellises, arbors, or strong supports. Butterflies love it, and people always stop to ask what it is.
  • 🌸 A true winter show stopper for warm climates or containers!

Why this tree secured to the ceiling? How cats decorated Christmas tree

Christmas Cats of TopTropicals - Bob, Cash, Nicki, Lilimon, James

🎄 Why this tree secured to the ceiling? How cats decorated Christmas tree

  • 🎄 Are your cats ready for Christmas?
  • 🎄 This year, as every year, the Christmas tree did not decorate itself. Our #PeopleCats handled the job (as always). Supervised heavily. Questionably executed.
  • 🎄 Executive directors: Bob, Cash
  • Quality inspectors: Nicki, Lilimon, James
  • 🎄 Bob personally spent lots of time properly installing the "snow" cover under the tree. Once the ornaments were properly installed and tested, Bob disappeared into his secret tunnel system behind the "snow covers", patiently waiting for passers by. Moments later - ambush. Nicki never saw it coming.
  • 🎄 The good news: the tree job was well done.
The better news: the tree is still standing - thanks to a strong cable attaching the top of the tree to the ceiling.

🎁 How are your cats getting ready for Christmas?
Happy Holidays and Meow Christmas!
