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!
