About This Product

Columnea arguta – Goldfish Plant is a member of the Gesneriaceae family of plants and is native to the Caribbean.  It is a flowering tropical vine that will trail down and bloom when grown in a hanging basket. The flowers of the Columnea arguta are red and tubular shaped with a ruffle around the edge of the petals. The flowers are unique in that when looking down on them, they have the shape of a goldfish swimming. Plant in a well drained soil such as Josh’s Frogs Gesneriad Soil and do not allow the roots to sit in water. Columnea arguta likes good air circulation and moderate light. This is a unique and hard to find plant. Josh’s Frogs is excited to be able to offer it to our customers.

USDA Hardiness Zone: 11

Container Gardens/Terrariums/Houseplant:

Due to its large potential size, it is not recommended to grow Columnea arguta in a container or terrarium. This plant will do very well in a hanging basket as a houseplant and will trail beautifully over the sides. The blooms are really an eye stopper.

Vivariums/Animal Terrariums:

This plant will do well in a large tank as long as it is given some air circulation. Plant toward the top of the tank as it will vine downward and bloom. Plant in a well drained substrate. Do not place with heavy animals as the Columnea arguta may break or lose leaves easily.

As good practice, Josh's Frogs recommends washing all plants thoroughly and removing as much soil as possible with dechlorinated water before placing them in their final home. Plants from Josh’s Frogs are specifically grown to be safe for use with animals. Live plants may vary in color, size and appearance.
