my new sinn.
Tis a real beauty. Do you have a lot of the sinns?
oooh laaa laaa bonnie..I love that..never seen one that color..very cool!!
yes i have quite a few sinns.they are my favorites.
mrsbonnie
Bonnie, that sinningia is a to 'die for' color. Which vendor did you use if you don't mind telling me. I can see why you couldn't live without her.
Ok, after drooling over your lovely sinns Bonnie I'm heading upstairs to work with mine!! Going to make sure they are all happy so I can see more blooms and fuller plants like yours! ^_^

Brenda,
Bonnie suggested I place mine on a capillary mat and close to the lights. Evidently they love that moisture coming up around them and then she said to let them dry before watering again.
Oh, what a nice Sinn. Love the color and the unusual shape of that bloom too! Do you think the bloom will open wider in time?
the bloom on this plant is called a double calyx.it has another bloom. but has not oped all the way.
bonnie
You really got a good one, Bonnie. I went to the same vendor and she didn't have much to look for.
Thanks for the information though.
Gail I'm going to try using my self watering Oyama planters for the few sinns I have for now ... I'm not ready to set up capillary mats or wicking yet .... maybe this fall as I know it would really be a time saver for me .... watering all my single plants one by one is a chore right now. But still it is my relaxing zen time and so far I still enjoy it no matter how time consuming!
Bonnie the bloom on this one reminds me of the Playful Porpoise sinningia I ordered. It came with blooms but it was so long and lanky I cut it up ...we'll see when I see blooms from it again!
~Brenda
actually playful porposie bloom is totally different, here is another picture where you can see the double flower.
bonnie
I see now, nice shot of the double bloom, thanks!
~Brenda
Bonnie, she is a definite WOW plant.
Wow is right. Very nice.
Hi, Jan!!!! Can't visit long........be on my daughter's computer for a minute tonight. I can now buy on ebay ........hip hip hooray........your job Jan is to find us sinningias as WOW as the one Bonnie found (LOL)
Bonnie, what a pretty color & bloom. Looks like a hot summer sunset. Very pretty!
