Aeschynanthus atrosanguineus

Aeschynanthus atrosanguineus is a nineteenth-century horticultural name, first listed in Van Houtte's nursery catalogue in 1851 and published by C.B. Clarke in 1883. Some checklists in GBIF treat it as a synonym of A. albidus, a lowland epiphyte of Malaya, Sumatra, Java and Borneo. There are no wild records, so this profile gives general care for a lowland Malesian Aeschynanthus.
