Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Stictocardia beraviensis is one of those plants you see rarely and just have to stop and look. The giant, soft velvety foliage and stems are beautiful enough, but the flowers have an intensity of flaming colors that just can't be ignored. Flowers more in full sun with ample water but can be grown in shade where the leaves will become mammoth! Suitable for a large container and a sunny window for winter. Africa.
