This has been one of my absolute favorite plants. I already had a huge one that grows on a big trellis - mounted on the wall (and then searches everywhere for new spots to cling to, slowly overtaking the wall at every opportunity it gets), but i wanted a second one as a hanging plant. This one is actually propagated. On april 19 i put three completely leafless stems in water. First, it started growing some tiny leafs, next came the roots. It is a fast grower. The backside is a dark red. Many people think it is a begonia, but it has no relationship to begonias. Last summer i had to leave for three weeks and it dried out and lost most of its leaves and then did nothing much. I thought i lost it, but repotted it and removed the dead leaves and low and behold, it started sprouting leaves all over the stems, surpassed the top of the trellis, and now already found a painting to cling to :-)
