Kohleria Species, Tree Gloxinia (Kohleria amabilis var. bogotensis)

Very vibrant colored flowers on this Kohleria! Easy to grow.

Felted foliage has a sage green center and veining.

The reverse of the foliage is just as intriguing!

Wonderful fuzzy leaves.


This second year plant is literally covered with these fine flowers.

My plants have wakened from their winter slumber and are producing a bounty of flowers!

Long flower stems arise from the leaf axils.

Flowers are very photogenic!

Fuzzy flowers and leaves!

Kohleria bogotensis 'El Crystal' - stunning fuzzy flowers in great abundance in winter!

One for fuzzy flower lovers!
