Hardy Gloxinia!

I had clearly forgotten i have a pinky colored Gloxinia! Was touched when it bloom a surprise on me.

My very first 2 pots of Gloxinia that survived all attack from rodent's bite; till they became bare and leafless, are now blossoming.

I'm surprised Gloxinia was such hardy plants when many had commented it's a difficult to maintain plant!

Outdoor Gloxinia grew so much better than being indoor, they particularly needs no fertilizers at all and blooms all month of the year! Compare the 2 here.

So always leave them outdoor, just make sure it's away from the rain. Direct rain fall ruin the plant ;)
