Goldfish Plant (Nematanthus gregarius)

Goldfish Plant is a trailing houseplant that adds bright, playful color with little bursts of orange-red flowers along cascading stems. It is an easy way to soften shelf edges and hanging baskets while keeping a neat, glossy green backdrop year-round. In the right light it blooms generously and repeatedly, bringing a finished, lively look to indoor plant displays. Give it bright, filtered light and an airy mix, and it will settle into a full, draping shape that is easy to maintain.

Distinctive Features

This tropical, evergreen perennial has arching, trailing stems lined with small, glossy, oval leaves and distinctive pouch-like tubular blooms that resemble tiny goldfish. Flowers are most common from spring through summer, with repeat blooming possible indoors when light and warmth stay consistent. The plant naturally cascades and can also be trained lightly along a small support for a fuller presentation. Its epiphytic tendencies mean it prefers excellent drainage and airflow around the roots rather than heavy, wet soil.

Growing Conditions

  • Sun: Bright, indirect light is ideal, and gentle morning sun is fine while harsh midday sun can scorch foliage.
  • Soil: Use a fast-draining, slightly acidic, airy mix such as potting soil blended with perlite and fine bark.
  • Water: Water when the top 1 inch of mix feels dry, keeping it lightly moist but never soggy.
  • USDA Zones: USDA Zones 10 to 11 outdoors, and elsewhere grown as a houseplant.
  • Temperature: Keep warm and stable, ideally around 65 F to 75 F, and avoid cold drafts.
  • Humidity: Moderate to higher humidity supports better blooming and cleaner growth, especially in dry indoor seasons.

Ideal Uses

  • Focal Point: Hang it at eye level in a bright room so the cascading stems and goldfish-like blooms become the centerpiece.
  • Hanging Baskets: Use baskets to showcase the natural trailing habit and create a full, draping curtain of foliage.
  • Shelves and Ledges: Let it spill over edges to soften hard lines and add color without taking up floor space.
  • Bright Bathrooms: Place in a well-lit, humid room to support steady growth and more consistent flowering.
  • Indoor Plant Groupings: Pair with upright foliage plants to add a draping layer and a warm color accent.

Low Maintenance Care

  • Pruning: Trim after flowering to encourage branching and keep the plant dense and evenly shaped.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly in spring and summer with a diluted, balanced houseplant fertilizer to support blooms.
  • Repotting: Repot when crowded and refresh the mix to maintain airflow and drainage around the roots.
  • Watering Rhythm: Avoid extremes, because overwatering can cause root issues and drying out too long can reduce flowering.
  • Pest Watch: Inspect occasionally for aphids, spider mites, and mealybugs, especially when indoor air is dry.

Why Choose Goldfish Plant?

  • Bloom Color: Orange to orange-red flowers add bright, cheerful color against glossy green leaves.
  • Trailing Style: Cascading growth creates instant softness and dimension in indoor spaces.
  • Repeat Interest: With strong light, it can bloom in cycles rather than delivering a single short flush.
  • Space Efficient: Typically stays about 6 to 12 inches tall while trailing 24 to 36 inches over time.
  • Easy Styling: Looks finished in a simple pot and becomes even better when allowed to drape freely.

If you want a flowering houseplant that drapes beautifully and still feels easy to live with, Goldfish Plant is a strong pick. Keep it in bright, filtered light, water with restraint, and use an airy mix that drains quickly. With steady warmth and a bit of humidity, it will reward you with fuller growth and frequent bursts of color.

Excellent treatment manual
Format: Hardcover
State of the art manual on a solution-focused form of multi-couple couples therapy for intimate partner violence. Excellent presentation of the rationale and the underlying theory behind the approach. I particularly like the presentation of the first six sessions. However, I did not endorse this with 5 stars because I believe that the solution-focused approach does not go far enough for some couples and that they need some more structured interventions for managing conflict, such as those presented in Gottman Method Couples Therapy.

A Great Way to Expose Yourself to Malpractice Lawsuits
Format: Hardcover
What the authors fails to say is that doing couples work where domestic violence is active is illegal in some cases and against standards of practice in most others. Not only might a clinician be increasing a client to dangerous relationship situations by conducting couples work where IPV is present, they are increasing their exposure to litigation. Let's not forget, this is the same APA who turned a blind eye to torture in the "war on terrorism."
