Streptocarpus 'Heartland's White Gold'

How about this for a good looking Strep?

Jude N. sent this photo for posting on the blog of one of her streps hybridized by Dale Martens. It's one of Dale's smaller growing Streptocarpus. Dale, along with others, has been working on hybridizing Streps so that they are smaller and more compact growing. Along with the trait for size, she also tries to get plants that have a high blossom count as well. The 'Heartland's White Gold' is a very pretty plant that has very clear white flowers with a bright yellow center. Jude's plant shows how nicely the dark leaves contrast with the flowers!

Thanks to Jude for sending in the photo!
