Streptocarpus 'Kim'



Archive entry 19.12.10

A very dark flowered cultivar with a strong white throat. Raised by Dibleys and introduced in 1991.

Dibleys catalogue says:

"A very compact plant, blooming early, with a multiflowering head of small deep inky blue flowers."

Writing in the JRHS in 2011, Tim Sandal says:

"Streptocarpus 'Kim' is a compact plant (less than 38cm/15in wide), which makes it ideal for restricted spaces. An early-bloomimg cultivar, it is smothered with deep blue flowers, each with a white throat."
