A delightful and easy-to-grow houseplant, Streptocarpus 'Pretty Turtle' showcases unique foliage that's sure to charm. Its distinctive leaves exhibit a fascinating turtle shell pattern, creating a tessellated effect with silvery veins against a backdrop of deep green. The fleshy, rounded leaves form neat rosettes, making it an excellent choice for smaller spaces and shelves.Originating from the rocky terrains of Africa and Madagascar, this Cape Primrose is a resilient plant requiring minimal upkeep. Reaching a height and spread of up to 25cm (10”), it thrives indoors with the following care:.From March to September, position your Streptocarpus in a bright location, avoiding prolonged direct sunlight; an east or west-facing windowsill is ideal. Water regularly, allowing the compost to slightly dry out between waterings, and ensure the plant doesn't sit in water. Feed fortnightly using a proprietary houseplant fertiliser. Repot into a slightly larger container in spring as needed.During October to February, if possible, move the plant to a south-facing windowsill. Water only when the compost is dry, and withhold fertiliser. Remove any dead leaves or debris to minimise the risk of pests and diseases.Please note: Some houseplants can be toxic to pets if ingested. If you suspect your pet has consumed a poisonous plant, seek immediate veterinary attention, bringing a sample of the plant with you.
