Unusual hanging/trailing houseplant

Aeschynanthus marmoratus, or the Zebra Basket Vine houseplant, is a tropical, epiphytic, trailing plant known for its deep green leaves with contrasting marbled patterns of lighter green or silver, and purple-red undersides. It is a creeping plant with long, flexible stems, often grown in hanging baskets to really show-off its foliage. While it can produce tubular, reddish-brown delicate flowers that resemble lipsticks, the foliage is the main ornamental feature and is really very striking
