Goldfish Plant (Nematanthus) “Black Gold” 3.5”pot

The "Black Gold" variety  is a striking cultivar known for its deep, dark green, almost black foliage contrasted with bright orange, goldfish-shaped flowers. This plant’s foliage has a slight sheen and a thick, succulent-like texture, helping it retain moisture and adding to its bold, tropical appearance. The flowers, emerging from the leaf axils, are vibrant orange and resemble tiny goldfish, adding a playful contrast to the dramatic, dark foliage.This variety is low-maintenance and brings a vivid, contemporary appeal to indoor spaces

Please note that as the plant matures, "corking" can be observed. This is a natural response to aging where the plant’s lower stems develop a rough, bark-like texture over time to support heavier growth above. In the case of the Goldfish Plant, which can become dense and trailing, the thicker, corked base helps anchor and support the lush upper foliage
