Medinilla Cuminglii

A breathtaking tropical flowering plant with cascading clusters of jewel-like blooms — the showpiece of any bright indoor space.

Medinilla is one of the most spectacular flowering houseplants in the world, prized for its dramatic pendulous flower clusters in shades of pink, coral and rose. Native to tropical rainforests, it thrives in warm, humid conditions with bright indirect light. Each plant is carefully nursery-grown and selected for health and bloom potential.

Care

• Light: Bright indirect light — no direct sun; an east or north-facing window is ideal
• Humidity: High — mist regularly or place on a pebble tray with water
• Water: Keep slightly moist during flowering; reduce in winter
• Soil: Well-draining, airy orchid mix or chunky aroid blend
• Temperature: Warm — above 18°C; protect from cold draughts
• Difficulty: Moderate
• Pet friendly: Yes

Care tips

• Never let roots sit in water — use a pot with good drainage.
• Feed monthly with a balanced liquid fertilizer during the growing season.
• After flowering, prune back spent stems to encourage new growth.
• A slight drop in temperature in winter can trigger the next flowering cycle.
