Sinningia 'Pink Pockets' is a 2011 Plant Delights/JLBG introduction that we consider one of the finest hardy gesneriad selections ever introduced. Our selection was the best performing seedling from a cross by gesneriad expert John Farina, of Sinningia conspicua, Sinningia eumorpha, and Sinningia 'Seminole'. Sinningia 'Pink Pockets' forms a deciduous 10" tall x 2' wide clumper composed of oval, hairy, green, hand-sized leaves, attached with red-purple stems and adorned from mid-July through September with delicious pink pocketbook-like flowers. Sinningia 'Pink Pockets' is amazingly tough and easy to grow. Good winter drainage and a few hours of sun are perfect...also great as a houseplant in a sunny window.
