Hailed by the breeders (Dibleys) as one of the best, bright pink varieties, 'Tina' is a relatively compact and free-flowering streptocarpus, that will usually flower non-stop from March to November. The pretty, trumpet-shaped blooms are a gorgeous blend of pinks - from soft blush to rich magenta, so they will mix easily with many other shades if you are adding to your collection.

We’re proud to support our British growers, and having been raised by one of our trusted UK nurseries, this indoor plant has a low carbon footprint, which makes it perfect for an eco-friendly collection or gift.

How to care for Streptocarpus Tina:

Throughout the growing season, keep them quite well watered, but as they are sensitive to overwatering, allow the compost to get a little dry in between; during this time they should also be fed with a high potash fertiliser. Remove spent flowers as they fade and trim back any old leaves that are past their best. Overwinter on a south or west-facing windowsill and water less often. Repot each spring into a slightly larger, shallow pot filled with fibre-based compost. They can also be used as summer bedding - grow in fertile, humus-rich, moist but well-drained soil in partial shade.
