Nobody--at least that I've discovered yet--down here sells Chiritas either, so I've gotten all mine from the web or mail-order. Two places in the northeast I'd recommend highly--Rob's Violet Barn and Lauray of Salisbury. I've ordered from both and I've always been pleased. You could go to the web-site of the Gesneriad Society and check for their advertisers too--and I suppose it's a good idea to check the GardenWatchdog for other people's reports.

I just got a shipment of mostly Chiritas from Lyndon Lyon, and they are beautiful. Very healthy little plants!

Thanks for the information. I can order either from Lyndon Lyon or Rob's as both are conveniently located in my area.
