Sometimes rescuing a plant from the Big Box store is worth the effort. This plant wasn't showing any bloom when I bought it, but I was hoping it would be lovely, (I've never met a Gloxinia that wasn't lovely).
It surprised me in many ways.
Not only was it really cool and spotty, like the first photo, but some of the flowers were variable! This one is right next to the spotted one as you can see, and it has much less coloration.
I just love the spots. You can see the connected stamen down in the flower's tube along with the pistil too.
I encourage plant rescue! The life you save may bring you lots of good photo ops.
