Vine Id

15 years ago

Hi,

I purchased this plant from a local nursery. Unfortunately, they had lost the name tag. It is a woody-type vine. The leaves are green with a red center; the flowers are similar to lipstick plants except they are fuzzy and open to be orange and tubular.

Hey bodiggly:
I have a plant named Nematanthus 'Champagne Jam', whose foliage is very similar (the leaves can grow quite large) but whose flowers are rather orange-ish (I have a photo, somewhere, but my photos are too large to upload here).

The flowers of N. 'stoplight' are quite 'red'. Do the flowers of your plant look like those in this link?

Here is a link that might be useful: N. 'Stoplight'
