Streptocarpus 'Gloria'
Streptocarpus ‘Gloria’ is a graceful flowering houseplant producing clusters of soft pink blooms with delicate pale centres, held on slender stems above a base of velvety green foliage. The light, airy flowers create a gentle, romantic display that brings long-lasting colour to indoor spaces.
Perfect for bright rooms with indirect light, it works beautifully on windowsills, desks or small tables where its blooms can be enjoyed up close. Its compact size and free-flowering nature make it an excellent choice for adding continuous colour to the home or as a thoughtful gift.
