| Hi all,
My grocery store streptocarpella (see link below) is now blooming beautifully, and drying out every 48 hours. If I divide and repot, (with a soil mix like I'd use for AV's), will that kill the blooming off, or will it just slow it down a little? I believe this one is supposed to be a year-round bloomer. I was also wondering about how tough the cuttings are. How well do they mail? Anyone out there with experience? Thanks so much! Andalee |
