Does anyone have experience growing this lovely plant? I just purchased a
forlorn specimen at a local nursery with cheerful yellow and orange flowers
with lots of purple specks. I'd like to bring it back to life and keep it
happy. It's from Bolivia and is in the Gesneriaceae. I'm hoping to be able
to keep it out of doors in a sheltered environment here in Santa Barbara,
California.
