Rasta Lipstick Plant (Aeschynanthus radicans 'Rasta')

Rasta Lipstick Plant is a trailing houseplant that adds instant personality with tightly curled leaves that tumble over the edge of a pot or hanging basket. It is easy to live with in bright indoor light, and it rewards steady care with vivid red tubular blooms that pop against the dark foliage. The cascading habit makes it a natural fit for shelves and high spots where you want greenery without giving up surface space. If you like plants that look a little wild but still feel polished, this one delivers.

Distinctive Features

This cultivar is prized for its twisted, curly, dark green leaves that create a dense, rope-like cascade as the stems lengthen. Bright red tubular flowers emerge from darker buds, giving the classic lipstick-plant look, with heaviest bloom often in late summer to early fall under good light. Stems can trail several feet over time, and the plant stays fuller when regularly pinched and trimmed. It is grown mainly for indoor display, where warm temperatures, humidity, and good drainage keep it looking its best.

Growing Conditions

  • Sun: Bright, indirect light, with gentle morning sun tolerated and harsh direct sun avoided.
  • Soil: A loose, well-drained potting mix, such as a houseplant mix amended with extra perlite or orchid bark.
  • Water: Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, then drain excess so roots never sit in water.
  • USDA Zones: 10 to 11.
  • Mature Size: About 12 to 24 inches tall in the pot with trailing stems about 2 to 3 feet long.
  • Habit: Trailing and cascading with dense, curly foliage.
  • Foliage: Dark green, tightly curled leaves that create a twisted, textured look.
  • Flowers: Red tubular flowers that typically bloom in late summer to early fall indoors.
  • Fruit: Not ornamental.

Ideal Uses

  • Focal Point: Hang it where the curly foliage and red blooms can steal the spotlight in a bright room.
  • Hanging Baskets: Let stems cascade freely for the fullest, most dramatic display.
  • Shelf Trailers: Place on a high shelf so the twisted foliage drapes down like living decor.
  • Bright Bathrooms: Use the extra humidity to keep leaves lush and encourage better blooming.
  • Indoor Collections: Pair with simpler-leaved plants to highlight its unique texture.

Low Maintenance Care

  • Pruning: Pinch and trim after blooming or anytime to keep the plant bushy and encourage fresh growth.
  • Humidity: Provide moderate to high humidity and good air circulation to keep foliage looking clean.
  • Feeding: Fertilize lightly in spring and summer to support growth and flowering.
  • Temperature: Keep it warm and avoid cold drafts, since chilling can cause leaf drop.
  • Repotting: Repot when rootbound, stepping up only one pot size to avoid overly wet soil.

Why Choose Rasta Lipstick Plant?

  • Curly Texture: Twisted leaves create a look that stands out from typical trailing houseplants.
  • Bright Blooms: Red tubular flowers add bold color when light and warmth are consistent.
  • Space Saving Habit: Trailing growth is perfect for hanging baskets and shelves.
  • Easy Indoor Fit: Thrives in bright, indirect light with straightforward watering.
  • Year-Round Interest: Foliage stays decorative even when the plant is not in bloom.

If you want a trailing plant with real character, Rasta Lipstick Plant is an excellent choice. Give it bright light, good drainage, and a steady watering rhythm, and it will build a dense cascade of curls with flashes of red bloom when the season is right.

Sprayer gets stuck
Color: Black
It’s perfect having the spray bottle in the paper towel holder butttt the sprayer gets stuck already and it’s only been a month so I can’t constantly spray in one motion, sometimes you have to do fix it yourself bc it won’t pop back up on its own

Handy
Color: Black
This is such a neat piece for your kitchen. Of course it is convenient for paper towels but the added feature of having a spray bottle included is very convenient to keep your counters sparkling. I put in the stone polish and sealer. You could put windex for stove and fridge or water cleaner you wish. I highly recommend this and it is very affordable!

Hello Organized Drawer
My husband thought that I was crazy for buying these but I was so tired of the stacked boxes of foil, wrap, parchment paper, Ziplock baggies, etc. getting the drawer stuck and having to reach in a semi-closed drawer and pry the box loose to open the drawer. Now, he wants all the drawers to be as neat and orderly as this one. While I’m not thrilled about the price point and the finish color (does not match anything I have going on in my kitchen), I do love the product itself. The sliders/cutters are GREAT (12+ uses so far) and don’t leave sharp or jagged edges. The rolls are held in by a panel with small magnets so it’s seamless and easily cleaned/wiped (if needed). I also bought the corresponding Ziplock bag organizers. Another pro of this product: the labels are CLEAR with black font. It sounds like a silly little detail, but it makes a huge difference. One important note: the 12-in version only holds your traditional foils, clear wrap, and wax paper rolls. Parchment paper WILL NOT fit in the 12-in version. If you want to store parchment paper, you need to buy the longer version bc those rolls are traditionally 14-in in length. Same for non-traditional aluminum foil rolls (like grill size foil).

Great fix for easier cutting and neat drawers
Not only uses less drawer space but greatly improves ability to cut desired length without needing to take it out of the drawer matching bag organizer makes a perfect set long length fits parchment paper and still workdays for standard rolls of foil Now my drawer looks organized and I have enough extra space to store my potholders
