Sinningia speciosa "Brocade Blue" F1
Gloxinia speciosa "Brocade Blue" F1.
A luxurious and very fashionable among flower growers indoor tuberous plant from the Gesneriaceae family.
Magnificent double, blue flowers bloom one after another in a lush bouquet from May to September. A low-growing compact plant with small leaves. On an adult plant, 10-25 large flowers are formed, creating the impression of an elegant bouquet.
Gloxinia prefers light, sunny places without exposure to direct sunlight. During flowering, abundant watering, weekly fertilizing, humid air (spraying from a spray bottle) are necessary. In October-November, after flowering, watering and fertilizing are stopped. When the gloxinia leaves dry out, the tubers are removed from the soil and placed for storage in shallow boxes with slightly damp sand or perlite, which are installed in a room with a temperature of +10 +12 °C. After a period of rest (approximately 90 days), the tubers will produce new shoots and can be replanted in a pot. Seeds for seedlings are sown on top of the substrate (without being embedded in the soil) from February to March, covered with glass and placed in a warm, bright place. Shoots appear at a temperature of +22+24°C, in 10-14 days. In the 3-leaf phase, the plants are pricked out, and after a month they are planted in separate pots. Gloxinia grown from seeds blooms in 9-10 months.
Bot. syn.: Sinningia speciosa (Lodd.) Hiern.
