Description

This lovely Mediterranean species bears flowers that are borne in groups of one to three at the apex and are flared hanging bells of chequered brown and green with a green stripe down the centre of each petal. This attractive plant is one which is easily grown outside, in a sunny well-drained spot.

Sowing Advice

Sow seeds at any time, covering them very thinly with compost or grit, keeping the seed pot in a cool, well-lit spot outdoors. Artificial heat is not needed and can prevent germination so be very patient as many species will only germinate in the spring after chilling or freezing in the moist seed pot in the winter. Grow on individual seedlings in small pots until of sufficient size to be potted on or planted out into the open ground.
