        Beautiful Streptocarpus. They are related to African Violets aren't they?

          I almost missed this. Aeschynanthus blooms twice a year for me - once at the height of summer, and then again at the height of winter. For some reason the winter flush is better, but here is the first flower of the summer flush.

                I used to grow Katie. I think I actually died from flowering itself to death!

                  I think Charlotte may go that way, I hope not but I'll carry them on via leaf cuttings.
