An oldie but a goodie. Columnea 'Orange Beauty' hybridized by Cornell in the early 1960's.A pretty flower and a nice clear light orange. Sinningia 'SRG's Pyou'. A very pretty Sinningia that is easy to grow and have nice contrast between the magenta flowers an darker leaves. Seemannia sylvatica. No matter what I do to this thing, it's hard to keep from getting brown leaves. I'm doing something very wrong but I'm not sure what. It does need to be moist and not dry out. After that???? Sinningia 'Diva'. This one is very cool and I am a big fan of the double calyx flowers. It seems to grow a good size tuber too. Sinningia 'Prudence Risley'. Just go order one of these. They are that good. Never out of bloom and they will take an immense amount of abuse. Logee's offers them now as well as Rob's and Kartuz. Sinningia sellovii. This thing will be interesting to put outdoors. One of them seeded into the neighboring pots and of all the things that will grow, almost guarnteed, this one will. If you want a species Sinningia... how about this one. It's big and it might really do well outdoors.One of the rarest of the rare. Petunia exserta. Only one group was found in the wild but seeds were distributed. This is a very fun and interesting plant. It takes a while from seeding to get it going robustly, but after that... it's a great grower and bloomer even under lights.
The leaves are super sticky and will catch fungus gnats all by itself. Sort of like a Butterwort only on a Petunia.
