Cape Primrose: Streptocarpus x hybridus

These evergreen, tufted hybrids are derived from a wide range of streptocarpus species and are well known for their long, spoon-shaped, mid-green and corrugated leaves. They bear foxglove-like flowers, 1 ½–2 ½in (36–60mm) long, in small clusters from early summer to autumn. The wide color range includes white, red, and purple. ‘Constant Nymph’ has satiny, bluish-purple flowers.

Height: 8–12in (20–30cm)

Spread: 9–15in (23–38cm)

Winter: 50–55°F (10–13°C). Direct light without full sun

Summer: 55–59°F (13–15°C). Direct light without full sun

Care: In winter, keep compost just moist; in summer, water freely but ensure good drainage. Feed every 2–3 weeks from late spring to late summer. Repot in spring when roots fill the pot, usually every 2–3 years.

Propagation: Divide congested plants in spring, initially placing them in 50–55°F (10–13°C). Alternatively, take leaf cuttings in midsummer and place in 55–61°F (13–16°C). Avoid high temperatures.
