It’s also known as sunset bells, black flamingo, copper leaf or simply chryothemis is a tender tropical perennial plant that belongs to the family of Gesneriaceae. The known native range of this species is Mexico (Chiapas) to Tropical America.

It can be used as a shade area house plant or interior ornamental plant or in a greenhouse. The plant has tubers at the base of the stem, and sometimes also in the leaf axils.
The tubers get dormant if temperature gets too low. Below certain temperature, the leaves and stem vanish and the dormant tubers starts to regrow the plant later when the right weather appears.
Copper leaf prefers filtered light & requires regular watering to ensure constant moisture in the soil.
