Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the Curly variety different from regular Lipstick Plants?
The Curly variety features uniquely twisted and curled leaves that create much more textural interest and dynamic movement than straight-leafed lipstick plants. The curly foliage adds incredible visual drama to the cascading display while still producing the same spectacular red tubular flowers.
When will my plant bloom and what do the flowers look like?
With proper bright light and care, your Curly Lipstick Plant will produce stunning bright red tubular flowers that literally look like lipstick extending from dark burgundy tubes! Blooming typically occurs in spring and summer, and the dramatic flowers are absolutely worth the wait.
How can I encourage more blooming?
Provide bright, indirect light (essential for blooming), maintain consistent moisture without overwatering, and feed regularly during growing season. Pinching growing tips encourages bushier growth with more flowering sites, and removing spent flowers promotes continued blooming.
Is this plant safe around pets and children?
Yes! Aeschynanthus plants are completely non-toxic to cats, dogs, and humans, making them perfect worry-free choices for families who want to enjoy their spectacular curly cascading foliage and vibrant red blooms safely throughout their home.
How long do the cascading vines get?
Curly Lipstick Plants can develop cascading vines 2-3 feet long, creating impressive hanging displays. The curly foliage makes the vines appear even fuller and more dramatic than straight-leafed varieties, perfect for creating stunning living curtains of twisted tropical beauty.

Tough Little Skwerls
Color: Squirrels (3-pack)
I bought these at the same time as I bought the Kyjen Hide-A-Squirel toy as I have 3 dogs and I figured at least one of the squirrels would get lost pretty quick leaving the dogs to squabble over the other two reamining squirrels. Ironically, all three of these squirrels are still present and accounted for though they are showing a bit of wear at this point. They are also covered with dog spit but as they are dog toys that is to be expected. I have 2 medium sized dogs and one huge dog. Two of the dogs play with these toys EVERY DAY and after almost 3 months they squirrels are just now starting to show noticeable wear. My dogs love to dissect their toys and remove the squeaker. If I am on the ball I find the squeaker and tie it up in a couple of pairs of old socks and return it to the dogs. This solves two problems: 1. The dogs are unable to injest the squeker and 2. I no longer feel obligated to try to find the mates to those socks. The dogs also love the squeaky sock toys and wiill still play with the squeakerless squirrel toy carcasses so this is truly a win-win situation. At this point, 2 of the 6 total squirrels I ordered are sans squeaker. Three out of the six are showing any real wear. One out of the six total looks like new, probably because it has been under the dresser for the past two months. So, these squirrels are smart as well, or at least one out of six is of above average intelligence. Well played, Kyjen, well played. These toys and the Kyjen Hide-A-Squirrel toy were all a big hit with my dogs, even with the dog that could care less about them because when I throw a squirrel for the other dogs to fetch, the dog who doesn't play with the toys chases the dogs that are running after the toy and screws with the slower dog by latching onto one of his hind legs and making him fall down. So, these toys entertain the dogs that actually play with them, the dog that couldn't care less about them, and me. That's getting the most possible bang for your buck right there! This is the first time I bought any of Kyjen's products and I would absolutely buy Kyjen products again as well as reccomend them to my dog-owning friends. These are awesome toys. Yes, the squirrels are on the small side but I was expecting that as I actually took the time to read the product description before I ordered them. My dogs do not care that the squirrels are kind of small and I don't believe that the size of the toys has any impact on their durability or function. These are awesome dog toys. If you don't get them for your dogs you are not a fun person and it's highly likely that your dog pees on you as you sleep. I sure would. I mean I would if I were your dogs. Buy the damn toys already! *HERE'S MY REVIEW OF THE KYJEN HIDE-A-SQUIRREL TOY* This review is from: Kyjen PP01056 Hide-A-Squirrel Pet Toy, Large I have 2 medium sized dogs and one giant dog and two of them love these toys. The other one likes to play with other dogs much more than she does dog toys so I'm not really surprised that she isn't that into them. The wierd dog and the giant dog LOVE these toys and play with them daily. They have taken both the squirrels and the "tree trunk" outside, played tug-of-war with them and even buried them and the toys are still looking pretty good after a couple of months of rough, frequent play. Two of the squirrels are now without their squeakers as the giant dog loves to dissect them and remove the squeakers. This isn't a problem, I actually expected he would have removed all of the squeakers by now and I bought three additional squirrels because I really expected these toys to wear out much more quickly. I'm pleasantly surprised at how well they are hanging in there. Of the six squirrels I ordered five are present and accounted for and the dogs play with all of them, even the ones giant dog has disemboweled. Yes, the squirrels are on the small side. I was not surprised by this as I took the time to read the complete product description. I don't know how well other larger dogs would like these toys, my giant dog is touched in the head but very smart and he loves them despite the size. I have never ordered Kyjen products before ordering this Hide-A-Squirrel toy and the replacement toys and I am thrilled that the toys are of such good qulaity and that my dogs are getting lots of "play" out of them. Even the one dog that doesn't like toys that much is entertained by them as she likes to chase the dogs that are playing with the toys and try to chew their legs off as they run. All my dogs are entertained and entertained dogs are dogs that are not running all over the neighborhood humping everything in sight or chewing holes in my socks. I would absolutely order Kyjen products again and I would order from this seller again. My items arrived one day before they were due and were packed appropriately. I would also reccommend both Kyjen and this seller to other dog owners and have already told my sister about these toys and how awesome they are. If I could give this product and this seller more than five stars I so would!

Healthy Squirrels
Color: Squirrels (3-pack)
Bought these years before and the squirrels have lasted. Well an exuberant teething corgi puppy has pulled the head "hair" off one. The whippet was miffed that the corgi girls liked them so I bought more. Cats like them too.

Perfect and would buy again and again
Color: Squirrels (3-pack)
This was our chiweinnie dogs favorite toys! Perfect for puppy curiosity. The male puppy is extremely rough play and works until he tears out the squeaker out of every toy we buy. Love that you can buy replacements affordably. He did finally win the battle but it was not easy to rip apart I give 5 stars to hold up to 4 pups and one destroyer dog.
