Codonanthe

These very easy to grow, cascading gesneriads have small, somewhat succulent, leaves and short, trumpet-like blooms.  Size of plant determined by how they are pruned by grower.  They will grow and bloom almost constantly, even when neglected a bit. 

General culture same as for violets.  They will bloom under either artificial or natural light.  These are some of the easiest to grow, most tolerant of neglect plants that can be grown.  Some are almost impossible to kill.  Though they do bloom, they make attractive plants even when not flowering.
