Streptocarpus Ladyslippers Deep Blue
These are incredible in person! Deep, dark, and saturated with royal purple and dark purple veining. Streptocarpus is part of the gesneriaceae family with its cousin, African Violet. Streptocarpus is commonly known as Cape Primrose, it’s not actually a primrose but has similar looking deep-green textured foliage. Streps are native to the mountains of South Africa and they are known to grow on the woodland floor. They are not fans of full sun, especially not in the peak summer months. Streps also want to dry out between watering – overwatering is the main route to failure with these beauties. Streptocarpus Ladyslippers® make a great container plant, garden border plant, or best yet as a beloved indoor houseplant. They stay fairly tight and compact with a max height of 10″.
