Orchids, for sure
This isn't a review I have to write for a Freebie but wanted to tell you about this little plant. I got this in a previous order but just had to rave about it. I have 20 Streps and love them all. They all have something special about them but this one is over the top. I also have a few Orchids and agree with the info....the flowers are huge and look a lot like my one orchid. The size and color is amazing...you will be thrilled with it as I am.
So pretty!
One of my most vigorous streps. Blooms non-stop! Wilts a little when I forget to water, but bounces right back. A winner!
great bloomer
This is one of the best blooming streps offered. I've had blooms all through winter, and now a spring growth spurt with even more flowers. It's one of the easier growers, too - doesn't mind my low humidity and occasional lack of water.
the most flowers in my collection!
This plant puts out more flowers more often than any other in my collection! I am a novice with houseplants, but this one seems to love whatever it is I'm doing, the blooms just keep on coming.
The Most Rewarding Houseplant EVER!
Bristols Tie Dyed was my very first Streptocarpus. I purchased it in April, 2008; It started blooming that May; and it bloomed nonstop until I needed to divide it about a month ago (January, 2011). IT WAS NEVER WITHOUT BLOOM IN OVER 2-1/2 YEARS! I had equal luck with other Bristols varieties I purchased in 2009. More often than not, my plants are blooming heavily. I grow my "streps" in filtered sunlight supplemented by grow lights all evening. I make my own Cornell-mix potting soil, and I fertilize with a constant-feed formula of Peters Specialties African Violet Plant Food. Streptocarpus are the most rewarding houseplants I have ever grown, and if you’re only going to order one, I can’t recommend Tie Dyed highly enough. It’s my favorite!
