Achimenes erecta

One of my newest Gesneriads. Am just starting a collection of these, beginning with species I can stick in a terrarium.

Thanks all. Have had two more blooms, but for some reason they both came out with missing petal. Not sure why.

Achimenes are supposed to go dormant in Winter, at least mine have. It will be interesting to see if yours do in an "artificial" environment like a terrarium

Thanks! I didn't know that. I really don't know anything about Gesneriads.
I bought this because it was reccommended for terrariums by Black Jungle.
