Description

For a home planting planned around early root development, Plant Streptocarpus (Streptocarpus spp.) for garden borders and beds after preparing the growing area. Provide full sun together with moderately fertile, well-drained soil for establishment.

During the early establishment period, Sow in prepared growing medium when it reaches the recommended germination range. Water moderately and prevent the soil from becoming waterlogged while seedlings establish, then remove spent flowers as needed to keep the planting tidy, with a attentive routine focused on new seedling care after sowing.
