~~~ x CODONATANTHUS ~~~

A production of magnificent blooms can be achieved under moderate light. These plants enjoy slightly cooler temperatures, have good trailing foliage, and do very well in hanging baskets. These gesneriads are a cross between Codonanthe and Nematanthus and are very similar to Codonanthe in cultural requirements. We find them to be very free blooming in natural light or artificial lighting.
