I love the gloxinia. It holds a very personal story for me. But, it was a challenge to grow. I bought seeds and nothing. So, I placed the pot with the seeds out in my backyard and sort of forgot about it. It was out there for 1.5 years (weathered a winter or two). I'm in the NYC area. All of a sudden I looked out and was shocked to see gloxinia leaves. and then it flowered. But, I moved. The movers placed a dinner plate on top of it. Yikes. They crushed it. I managed to save one of the plants and still had seeds left from before. I placed them on the top of the soil and sprayed almost on a daily basis. They all germinated. I didn't know you could grow them from corms. Beautiful plant.
Have never grown gloxinia it will be interesting to see how they do for you ,have ordered 6 more African violet's from Dibleys micro miniature and semi miniature so look forward to them arriving in March, stay safe and good luck with your plant's.
I hope they do grow and will definitely post some updates. After reading your comment I had a browse too on Dibleys, I am trying to resist the urge to buy anything Ann. Hope you are well and thanks for the wishes
Hello, where I am I did struggle to find it. I bought 3 in the pack and only 1 has grown. It is starting to grow again this year for the second time so I am very happy to look after it a little better 😊

Long-winded. I suggest re-taking this within a 3 min slot, with the differences of 3 corm tops retained, but only showing 10 brush strokes & only planting 1.

Thank you . Very useful information .
Thank you 😊 for watching I'm glad you found some useful information in that video
If you cover the planted ,bulb with transparent foiil?!
I didnt try that myself, I think it's best to let the bulbs have air circulation too.
Me gustaría que fuera en españo

That is no a good soil for gloxinea, gloxinea like peat moss + soil + perlite + eggshells and just watering when soil is 100% dry
Thank you, are the egg shells crushed and what do they do for the plants?
Wher do I buy them please help!!!!

Thanks Fatherxmas for the suggestion. Have a happy 2022
