Plant: Aeschinanthus.
Care:
Lighting. For a flower, you should choose a well-lit place, protected from direct sunlight. Window sills located in the western or eastern part of the room are perfect for this. If there is space only on the southern window, then the plant must be shaded from the direct rays of the sun with a thin curtain, otherwise burns will form on the surface of the foliage. It is impossible to put it on the northern windowsill, since due to poor lighting it may not bloom. The room where the plant is located should be systematically ventilated, but do not forget to protect it from drafts.
Watering. In caring for such a plant, it is very important to water it correctly and maintain optimal air humidity. Watering is carried out only after the top layer of the substrate in the pot dries out a few centimeters deep. Some time after watering, the excess liquid drained into the pan must be poured out. In the event that the earthen lump dries up completely, flowers and buds will begin to fly around the flower. With a cool winter, watering should be less frequent than in the warm season. Make sure that there is no stagnation of liquid in the soil mixture, as this leads to yellowing and flying around the foliage. Water and moisten the bush with well-settled soft water at room temperature.
Temperature. In order for the bush to be lush and bloom profusely, it should be protected from sudden temperature changes. It grows best at an air temperature of 20-25 degrees. In order to see spectacular flowering in spring, with the onset of autumn, the bush is rearranged to a cooler (from 15 to 18 degrees) and well-lit place. Make sure that the room is not colder than 15 degrees, otherwise foliage will begin to fly from the bush. If everything is done correctly, then in the last winter or first spring weeks, buds will form on the escinanthus. As soon as this happens, you can gradually increase the air temperature in the room to 20-25 degrees.
Height: 50-60 cm.
