Took a close up today. These flowers are only 1/2 inch wide but cute as can be!

and here's another pic. It's covered in buds, but they will not all open at once. The white buds in the background are Codonanthe carnosa.

Keyring they are so pretty. What dose the plant look like ? How is it's growth , does it get large ? I have never seen one before.
Thanks for sharing, Alison

they reportedly grow on ant hills. good for basket culture, or as a creeper. http://gesneriads.ca/codona07.htm

codonanthes are generally much more succulent than alsobia and have fewer leaves (no clusters), but yes... similar growth habit.

That's very pretty. I really like the blush of pink on it.
