Streptocarpus ‘Steffano’s Shadow Play’ – Cape Primrose (4.5″ Pot)

Streptocarpus ‘Steffano’s Shadow Play’ is a beautiful cape primrose that makes an excellent low light houseplant. It features striking, radiant bluish purple blooms with shadowy black margins. This amazing plant graces your house with a long-lasting explosion of color, practically blooming all year if grown in good conditions.

An indoor temperature of 67-75°F is ideal. Temperatures too much above 80°F tend to cause leafburn as well as reduce the blooming power and longevity of the plant. Primroses can be grown in low light conditions, although an east or west-facing window is best. They prefer high humidity and a consistently moist, but not waterlogged soil.
