I dont remember Ali, are you talking about he gloxinia? I took babies off for you last night and repoted them.
Maybe you are thinking of the Kohleria? I maybe confused you -that was a duplicate of one I bought for Lorry, but if you want it, I'll take the pup off and send the mom to you to grow out (it looks pretty ratty now after the travel -leaves got crispy, it looked so much better earlier in the trip!), just need Key's help in how to harvest the rhizomes. I cant remember what else I had - so many plants I cant even mentally catalog them all! LOL.

Here's a photo of the gloxinia sylvatica, is this it? This one can be divided again, it seems to spread by undergound runners like mint! So I'll take some more babies if anyone wants some.


I finally got all the babies planted up and I'm worn out. I unpacked all the violets last night and

Keyring, on the kohleria, it's awfully tall, if I cut it down, 1) can I root the cutting and 2) will it bush out?

HELP!
