Streptocarpus Dimetris

This is a translation from the original Dimetris Russian language forum. Dimetris' founders and forum administrators - Pavel and Elen Enikeev, Ukraine.

NOTE: These entries are in chronological order beginning with the original seedling description.

Pavel: "Unfortunately the photo does not do it justice, it is much better in real life. Bright red flowers with a darker throat, petals look like velvet with a silky appearance."





Elen: "Streptocarpus DS-Poppy. What is good about these streps?
1. Color. Very difficult to photograph well;
2. beautiful netting makes the petals look like folded velvet;
3. strong peduncles;
4. the size and unusual form of the flowers."





Pavel:"Backlit photography - where the light in the background is the focus rather than the plant in the foreground."
