Open House/Web-Only! Yes, it's another of the amazing hardy gloxinias from South America. Sinningia sellovii is composed of thick, light green, sandpaper-like leaves on an arching clump that can reach 20" in height. Atop the plant, in midsummer, are 3' arching spikes of pendent scarlet-orange bells. We grow our plants in our full sun-baked rock garden, where they thrive with good drainage...very easy.
