Description: Mini Sinningia is a cute miniature plant that blooms all year round. It belongs to Gesneriad family and a relative to African Violets and Cape Primroses (Streptocarpuses). Very easy to grow from seeds and care about.Seedlings of this variety will likely repeat the parent in color scheme (red petals with white center extending to the lower lobe) but the pattern of markings will vary from pure white center to more or less red dots and streaks. The seeds are very tiny, dust-like and need to be handles with care. There are approximately 15 or more seeds in a package. Mailing is world wide by regular mail envelope (no tracking, sorry).To Canada and USA it might take up to 10 business days, to other parts of the world it can be even a month or two. I do not have any control over this.If you buy 5 or more varieties I will send you a gift pack of seeds of your choice of same or lesser value (please indicate your preference and a second choice). To grow Gesneriads from seeds you can use a shallow container filled with peat moss mixed with Perlite (without any added fertilizer) 1:1. It should be wet but not soggy. Spread your seeds evenly on top of your soil by tapping on your hand holding the package and cover with transparent lid. Place in well lit place and practice your patience :). Seedlings can start to emerge from 2-3 to 8 weeks. From time to time you need to mist the soil using a spray bottle. When seedlings have 4-6 leaves you can spread them out by gently lifting with a toothpick and placing them onto new place burying the stem to the level of the first leaves. Or simply put them back on the same spot if they are already at a good distance from each other. (if you are too scared to handle those tiny ones you can wait another little while till they grow a bit bigger). When they are about one month old you can transplant them into their individual containers. Surprisingly, this gentle root disturbance promotes the growth and you'll get them to bloom faster. This is one of the ways to grow them. Hope you enjoy this exciting process of growing this unusual tiny beauties from seeds to flowers :).
