Default Off topic - Aeschyanthus lanceolatus x2

Here is a plant I grow with my orchids. It's not a common Aeschyanthus at
all. The very small leaves grow on 6' long stems in a 4" pot. This is the
first year it has bloomed for me. Apparently, I've been trimming it back and
in the process trimming off any bloom buds. The first picture fairly
accurately shows the flower clusters which last for several weeks. The 2nd
picture is confusing. There are several 4" pots in bloom hanging at
different distances. The one in the foreground goes another 2' below the
frame.

Sometimes off topic is good. This is an example. Very interesting plant,
