Care Guide

💧 Water
☀️ Light Full sun

Coral vine grows best with maximal exposure to sunlight for most of the day. It can also tolerate average light conditions. Having originated in sunny habitats, it generally does better with plenty of light. Insufficient or excessive light can stunt its growth and reduce flowering.

Ideal: Full sun
🌡️ Temperature 20–37.8°C

Coral vine comes from tropical areas, where the weather is generally warm and humid. Consequently, it is adapted to high heat and moisture. It dislikes sudden temperature shifts and prefers a steady thermal environment, so avoiding temperature fluctuations indoors is important. It typically cannot tolerate cold and needs warmer conditions to grow. If the surrounding temperature falls too low, the plant may stop growing or even die.

Ideal temperature: 20–37.8°C
