Aeschynanthus is a large genus of Old World tropical herbs . In many respects , they are analogous to the genus Columnea in Central and South America -- both are most often trailing epiphytes with fairly large and showy flowers which are frequently bird pollinated . The appearance of the various Aeschynanthus species varies widely . The original ' Lipstick Plant ' has hard - surfaced shiny leaves , with bright red flowers that emerge from a very dark red tubular calyx , in a fashion reminiscent of lipstick emerging from a tube . It is an epiphyte that grows in the angles of branches in the rain forest . As with all epiphytes , the lipstick plant 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 . Needs plenty of light , but not direct sunlight . They thrive in summer heat , but winter temperatures should not drop below 60 degrees . Water and fertilize the plant often during the growing season and mist it regularly . It can tolerate slight drying - out in between waterings . Water sparingly during the winter rest period . http : / / toptropicals . com / cgi - bin / garden _ catalog / cat . cgi 제주 방림 원 에서 ( 2006 . 9 . 29 )
