The goldfish plant earns its name honestly: dozens of bright orange, pouched blooms shaped like tiny goldfish dangle among small, glossy, dark green leaves. Its trailing stems arch over the edge of a hanging basket, where the flowers seem to swim in midair.

Give it bright, indirect light, with a little gentle morning sun to spur blooming. Water when the top inch of soil dries, and never let it sit soggy. It likes humidity and steady room temperatures, so keep it clear of drafty windows and heat vents.
