goldfish plant

Orange-bloomed trailing vine

A goldfish plant is a tropical houseplant with glossy leaves and tubular orange or red flowers that resemble leaping goldfish.

Native to Central and South America, it's a popular hanging plant that blooms when given bright indirect light: The goldfish plant finally flowered after I moved it near the window.
