Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This brilliant Flame Violet is one of the most outstanding color forms of any indoor container plant. The draping leaves are a mixture of pinks, whites, silvers and greens which are highlighted by orange-red blooms. Not often grown commercially, it is a slow, sensitive grower that needs a consistent environment to thrive. Moderate, high-quality light, warm temperatures and accurate watering are needed for success. It is the perfect candidate for a light garden where the growing conditions are easily managed.
