Streptocarpus are originally form South Africa and are sometimes refered to as the 'Cape Primrose'. Streptocarpus species are usually grown in hanging baskets, however in the right conditions they have been used as a groundcover plant in a filtered shade position with moist but well drained soil that mimic the natural habitat of Streptocarpus Species. Streptocarpus saxorum is known as the 'False African Violet'. Nurseries, Mail Order Nurseries, Specialist Nurseries,Retail Nurseries, Wholesale Nurseries, Garden Centers.

Streptocarpus grow well in similar conditions to that of African Violets however they are probably a little easier. They require a moist soil, however not a wet one. Let them dry out one in while.

Old foliage can be removed as needed.
Remember to divide Streptocarpus to avoid overcrowding.
Fertilize using a weak seaweed based solution.
Allow for good air circulation
Propagate from leaf cuttings
