Sinningia ‘Cherrie’s Jubilee’ is a unique, hardy perennial that sprouts up numerous flower stalks from a large, deciduous, underground tuber. Stems are covered in a multitude of dangling, cherry red tubular flowers all season. A favorite of hummingbirds. Gloxinia is best grown in moist, humus-rich soil that does not dry out. Deadhead frequently to prolong blooming. Mulch heavily in the fall.
