The plants of this group are among the best houseplants for a constant stream of blooms and ease of growth.
Do you grow Gesneriads? If so, please share your photos and experiences in the comments section after the article.
Thanks, Lee Anne, for reminding me what a great group of plants this is. I used to grow many of the ones you mention when I had a small greenhouse. My favorite was Episcia 'Pink Brocade.' Unfortunately, I found it very challenging to grow one that looked healthy.
Gardener was the label imprinted on me when the souls were handed out and so be it. --Margaret Roach (Thank you, Sharon!) Notes from the Garden: Articles of interest on all aspects of gardening Cottage-in-the-Meadow Gardens: Come on in and take the tour! Check out the photos!
