Medinilla serpens
This Medinilla can be grown as a vine or ground cover. Foliage emerges a beautiful bronze and matures to deep dark green. Â Formerly known as Heteroblemma serpens. Flowers well in containers and hanging baskets indoors in bright light and outdoors in shade to dappled morning sunlight.Â
*Note to Customers: Medinillas excrete small, round, semi-translucent grains known as “growth sugars”. These growth sugars are completely harmless to the plant and having growth sugars present is actually a tell-tale sign that that plant is healthy and thriving in its current growing conditions. These can be removed with a damp cloth and standard dish soap if you prefer.
