hanging basket of ...?

I bought an unmarked plant! Not very clever, I admit, but I think it's from "Exotic Angel", so I thought I'd be able to look it up on their web site. I didn't find it. Any ideas?

Hi Cherish, I took a slip from the plant of a friend that look just like yours. He said it was a variegated lipstick plant. Take a look at the pictures at Aeschynanthus. I don't know that it is the exact same one, but Aeschynanthus longicaulis has very similar markings. This link is a nice reference on gesneriads. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click home to explore the site.

Fantastic! Thank you, Eric. Together with another picture I found at http://www.cloudjungle.com/eshop/pro...?intProdID=589 I'm pretty well convinced that you are correct. Now I know that I'm probably over-watering it just a tad and can give it a rest.
