It has grown ever so well in a north window and has had at least 50 flowers open from April til now. I am going to put it under lights. I have grown a good many Gesneriads over the years but this one blooms so well with minimum care. I had to spend this spring and summer away for the most part and fertilized it infrequently. I meant to put it on a resevior and wick, I didn't and got home a few days to see it wilted. I gather there are other Bristol hybrids that are at or near this stature. What a LOVE! I hope everyone has a great holiday season and that your new year is all you want. Lee Sherwood McDonald |
