Description

Streptocarpus ‘Pretty Turtle’ is a charming Cape Primrose with striking veined leaves and clusters of tubular flowers that bloom for months. Its compact size makes it perfect for windowsills, desks, or small plant displays, while the patterned foliage adds interest even when not in flower. A colourful, long-blooming choice for plant lovers who enjoy something a little different.

Plant Care 

Light: This plant loves bright indirect light, but the direct sun could scorch the leaves.

Watering: They like to be moist all the time but don't fare well if overwatered. Will recover from underwatering. Sensitive to excess moisture on leaves so bottom watering is best. 

Temperature: Ideally, they want 18-24°C, especially if you want them to flower. Don't let it get below 5°C. Otherwise, you will see leaf drop and have one sad-looking plant. 

Potting: A well-draining and moisture-retaining mix is perfect. Our Thirst Trap mix should do the trick!

Hot tips: This plant loves humidity, so a bright, steamy bathroom is ideal Deadhead spent flowers to encourage repeat blooming.

Pet Friendly: YES
