Diastema Affine

Small flowering gesneriad with 2-3cm wide bullate foliage ranging from bronze/green in moderate light to a dark green in low light. Very easy to grow and will usually recover from poor conditions. Flowers regularly with 1 cm long white flowers sometimes with a splash of purple at the end.

Soil :

Does best with consistently moist ABG mixture.

Humidity :

Does well in 70+ humidity, tolerant of lower airflow, but fungus and moulds can be a concern with low airflow. Will wilt dramatically if humidity drops below 60, but recovers nicely if humidity issues are caught early enough.

Light :

Very light tolerant but prefers low to moderate lighting. If colour starts to lighten into a lime green, lighting is too strong, and the plant will become leggy. Plant can also become leggy in low light conditions.
