Tips for Success:

Also known as "Cape Primrose", Streptocarpus are easy-to-grow, colorful and can bloom year-round if the right cultural conditions are met.

• Grow in partial sun to shade.• Keep temperatures above 50°F.• Water accurately; allow soil to become visually dry between waterings.• Never allow cold water to touch the leaves.• Go easy on the fertilizer – just once or twice a month with a dilute solution.

Five Star

I received mine today and boy was I surprised to see just how big the plant was! And......it already had two bloom stalks with blooms opening!
I had ordered two others from another supplier and they were so tiny and are just now starting to bloom after several months. I'm so impressed with Logees than I am placing another order tonight!

Gorgeous, constantly in bloom, and care free

I got my Something Special from Logee's about 6 years ago. It usually has at least 10 flowers at a time. Sometimes there are as many as two dozen flowers open at the same time. I've had it in a 5" pot all this time--no worries. What a stunning plant!
