GESNERA
Naegelia. Tender perennial
An extremely beautiful ornament for stove or conservatory. The new
hybrids freely produce spikes of bright pendulous flowers of many
charming colours. Although the Gesnera is a perennial, it is sound
practice to treat the plant as an annual. Seedlings from a January
sowing will commence flowering in about nine months. Very rich soil, a
warm and even temperature, and plenty of water, are requisite to promote
luxuriant growth. The culture advised for Gloxinias will exactly suit
the Gesnera also.
