Thanks for looking. :-)
GG, the flower becomes about two feet long, it will bloom from the bottom little flowers and work through for two months! Its really fascinating.
Gee, the other plant is nematanthus gregarius, the goldfish plant. You can see the little orange goldfish blooms on it now that spring has started if you look close. I have it in my garden for reference in case I remembered the latin name wrong off the top of my head......lol.
