Some blooms from house plants
Hi all,
I have these two very nice plants that propagate nicely. First Seemania sylvatica or Gloxinia sylvatica. I grew these from seed. I sewed the seeds less than a year ago and already they are in full bloom.
Second is a Plectranthus hybird, commonly called a lavendar, but its not really a lavendar. However both the real lavendar and this plant are both in the mint family.
