This member of the Gesneriaceae family was described by H.E.Moore in
1954. It's from Sao Paulo and Parana States in Brazil. Give it a
well-drained soil, some water and some sun, and the white, lavendel or
pink flowers will come. The caudex can grow up to ten cintimetres in
diameter, and the whole plant to 30 centimetres in height. Can only be reproduced by seeds.
