Goldfish Plant (Nematanthus gregarius)

Goldfish Plant is a trailing houseplant that adds bright, playful color with little bursts of orange-red flowers along cascading stems. It is an easy way to soften shelf edges and hanging baskets while keeping a neat, glossy green backdrop year-round. In the right light it blooms generously and repeatedly, bringing a finished, lively look to indoor plant displays. Give it bright, filtered light and an airy mix, and it will settle into a full, draping shape that is easy to maintain.

Distinctive Features

This tropical, evergreen perennial has arching, trailing stems lined with small, glossy, oval leaves and distinctive pouch-like tubular blooms that resemble tiny goldfish. Flowers are most common from spring through summer, with repeat blooming possible indoors when light and warmth stay consistent. The plant naturally cascades and can also be trained lightly along a small support for a fuller presentation. Its epiphytic tendencies mean it prefers excellent drainage and airflow around the roots rather than heavy, wet soil.

Growing Conditions

  • Sun: Bright, indirect light is ideal, and gentle morning sun is fine while harsh midday sun can scorch foliage.
  • Soil: Use a fast-draining, slightly acidic, airy mix such as potting soil blended with perlite and fine bark.
  • Water: Water when the top 1 inch of mix feels dry, keeping it lightly moist but never soggy.
  • USDA Zones: USDA Zones 10 to 11 outdoors, and elsewhere grown as a houseplant.
  • Temperature: Keep warm and stable, ideally around 65 F to 75 F, and avoid cold drafts.
  • Humidity: Moderate to higher humidity supports better blooming and cleaner growth, especially in dry indoor seasons.

Ideal Uses

  • Focal Point: Hang it at eye level in a bright room so the cascading stems and goldfish-like blooms become the centerpiece.
  • Hanging Baskets: Use baskets to showcase the natural trailing habit and create a full, draping curtain of foliage.
  • Shelves and Ledges: Let it spill over edges to soften hard lines and add color without taking up floor space.
  • Bright Bathrooms: Place in a well-lit, humid room to support steady growth and more consistent flowering.
  • Indoor Plant Groupings: Pair with upright foliage plants to add a draping layer and a warm color accent.

Low Maintenance Care

  • Pruning: Trim after flowering to encourage branching and keep the plant dense and evenly shaped.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly in spring and summer with a diluted, balanced houseplant fertilizer to support blooms.
  • Repotting: Repot when crowded and refresh the mix to maintain airflow and drainage around the roots.
  • Watering Rhythm: Avoid extremes, because overwatering can cause root issues and drying out too long can reduce flowering.
  • Pest Watch: Inspect occasionally for aphids, spider mites, and mealybugs, especially when indoor air is dry.

Why Choose Goldfish Plant?

  • Bloom Color: Orange to orange-red flowers add bright, cheerful color against glossy green leaves.
  • Trailing Style: Cascading growth creates instant softness and dimension in indoor spaces.
  • Repeat Interest: With strong light, it can bloom in cycles rather than delivering a single short flush.
  • Space Efficient: Typically stays about 6 to 12 inches tall while trailing 24 to 36 inches over time.
  • Easy Styling: Looks finished in a simple pot and becomes even better when allowed to drape freely.

If you want a flowering houseplant that drapes beautifully and still feels easy to live with, Goldfish Plant is a strong pick. Keep it in bright, filtered light, water with restraint, and use an airy mix that drains quickly. With steady warmth and a bit of humidity, it will reward you with fuller growth and frequent bursts of color.

A total joke.
Pattern Name: Cage Ball, Size: Large - 4 Inch / 8.5 oz
I was so hopeful and really wanted this to be as good as the sellers claimed. After all, they boast of a lifetime replacement (a joke and be sure to read the ridiculous terms lol). I have a "pocket pitty" and she loves rubber toys. There is not much I have found that can withstand her force; however, reading reviews AND seeing their warranty, I wanted to give it a try. Typically, I stick with Java wood and XL super dense knotted ropes, as that has been the only thing that can last any real amount of time. Thankfully, she never goes after our stuff or household items/furniture, just her toys. The ball arrived. I checked it over. It looked semi promising. I was hopeful. The design does allow for them to leverage their paw strength by getting it between the rubber bars and then pull with their teeth. Within 3 minutes of her having it, she already had a bar ripped off. Within 5 minutes, she had 3 bars ripped off. Don't get me wrong, she had a blast. But this is by no means strong enough for an actual aggressive chewer. Perhaps there is just not anything rubber that can handle her jaws, but now I can't get a replacement because the warranty only covers if the product is defective. It doesn't cover chewing damage (on any of their products). The advertising is very misleading so be aware. Why a replacement if she will just destroy it again you may wonder? She loves to go after a ball, but now I know she can kill this one, I keep them in a drawer and only let her play fetch with it while supervised. I will say though, I you have a puppy, I think this would be great for them as long as they are not extra large. The material has give, which is nice. But if you have a real aggressive chewer, don't waste the money.

Not indestructible, but is very tough.
Pattern Name: Ball, Size: Large - 3 Inch / 12 oz
My dog destroyed this, but it took a little longer than it usually does. Would love to know how the lifetime replacement works. There is no information that I see on how to contact the seller.

Would buy again
Pattern Name: Cage Ball, Size: Large - 4 Inch / 8.5 oz
This is a great ball! Both my dogs love it. Queensland is a heavy chewer and I can see no damage. Catahoula loves to fetch and kick after kick and retrieval this ball shows no wear. It’s easy to pick up and is a good size for my dogs.

Very Durable Ball
Pattern Name: Cage Ball, Size: Large - 4 Inch / 8.5 oz
This ball has held up to regular puppy chewing for 3 months now. At first I was worried my retriever would get her mouth stuck in it, but it hasn't been a problem since she has gotten bigger. Supervision required for smaller pups. One thing to note is that the ball was shipped with a strong rubber smell, but that has gone away with use and washing. Super easy to clean! It is a heavier ball making it bounce well and it doesn't damage the walls. Super durable. She's been chewing on it every day and there is no damage to it at all. The scratches, holes, or pieces missing. It's stayed intact for months!

Good ball, but not really for super chewers
Pattern Name: Ball, Size: Large - 3 Inch / 12 oz
This ball is tough...my (foster) dog is tougher. It is a heavy rubber ball, but my Staffordshire bull terrier is able to destroy these balls within about a couple of hours. We never let him chew on these unmonitored. If you have a moderate chewer, this is probably ok for your dog; for any super chewers, you might want to pass. We first bought one of these balls when we learned our foster dog (fresh out of the shelter) had heartworms. We knew we had to keep him occupied somehow, and it is by far his favorite toy (he loves the doughnut-shaped toy as well). We bought MANY of these during his heartworm treatment. Now that he is done with his treatment we won't buy any more of these. They are expensive for what they are. And just be aware that the lifetime warranty only applies to material or manufacturing flaws...not the actual toughness of the product.
