Sinningia Raindrop Red?

15 years ago

The pictures I have seen of this are so pretty! Does anyone still grow it or know someone who does? I believe it was hybridized by Paul Cummiskey in Tampa. There was a "Raindrop" series? I would love to have any information you can provide. If you've grown it, did you like it? How does it do?

If anyone has it and is interested in a trade, I have various sinningias, violets, miniature plants, assorted gessies.

Best,

QC

This lady, here on GW, has it on her list for trade:

She calls hers 'Red Raindrop'.

Thank you, kayjones! I haven't checked this board for awhile - I'd pretty much given up the search for this plant. Will check out Rokky's list.
