Description
Dischidia owes its common name, urn plant, to the fact that its fleshy, water-storing leaves can grow into almost balloon-like spheres, which, along with its tiny rosy red flowers, makes it an interesting eye-catcher. It can be cultivated in a hanging basket as well as kept climbing with the help of climbing aids.
