Kohleria ‘Ruby’ is a delicate looking plant. Upright grower, with dark leaves and bright ruby-red flowers beautifully displayed all along the stem of the plant.

Even when grown under lights, this plant will most likely require staking.

I absolutely love this hybrid. It has a very neat, delicate growth habit, smaller leaves, but medium sized flowers. The leaves underside and parts of the stem are purple.

Although the plant is upright grower with flowers all along the stems, it still stays relatively small, unlike most hybrids that fall in this category.

In terms of care, this plant requires basic kohleria care, and is extremely easy to grow and flower.

A very showy hybrid. The flowers are large and bright-red, with large faces, molted with darker red.

The leaves are large medium green and marbled, which seems to fade as the plant grows.

Despite the large flowers and leaves, the plant stays short and compact.

Kohleria ‘Queen Victoria’ is a medium to large koheria hybrid.

The leaves are dark olive green with a bit of red hue to them, medium sized.

This hybrid has large and showy, salmon pink flowers. The flower faces are spotted and start of as bright pink upper half and white bottom half, but the colors eventually fade to an overall light pink.

This particular hybrid (along with a few others) in my experience makes an excellent cut flower. The cuttings will continue to flower and root in the vase, almost indefinitely.

Kohleria ‘Pink Shadows’ has large, very dark leaves, that are slightly marbled with lighter silver shades.

The flowers are bright red tubes with light pink faces, and really stand out against the foliage.

Given enough light, the plant will remain fairly short, but it grows quite tall, when grown on a windowsill.

Very showy plant. This hybrid flowers generously, and in my experience, provided warmth and light, it flowers and grows all year-round. It can continue flowering on old growth for a very long time. The stem gets thicker with age and it can start looking almost like a bonsai.

Kohleria ‘Maki’ is a tiny kohleria hybrid, that almost looks like a ground cover. In my opinion, it’s perfect for terrarium culture.

This kohleria seems to prefer higher humidity than other hybrids, and seems a lot more susceptible to mealy bug infestations.

Other than that, if the right conditions are met, it’s a very rewarding plant to have. It might be reluctant to flower at first, but once it becomes pot-bound, this plant is never out of flowers. It’s tiny, cute and very endearing. The flowers are very bright and stand out on their long stems.

Kohleria Lono is a larger, upright-growing kohleria hybrid by Frances Batcheller.

It sports lightish green leaves and stem, purple flowers with white faces (corolla), covered with dark purple spots.

When flowers first open, the corolla’s base color almost looks green, but then slowly fades to white.

‘Designer Jewel’ is a medium size kohleria, with relatively large flowers and leaves. This is a beautiful hybrid by Alfredo Lin.

The leaves are light gray and marbled, making this hybrid really stand out. It’s the only hybrid I have with that coloration of the leaves.

The flowers are relatively large too, showy, and appear clustered at the top of the plant. Despite the large leaves and flowers, the plant doesn’t grow very tall.

It’s definitely a showy, generous bloomer, but more of a seasonal one, in my experience.

So cute!

Small, upright kohleria with darker leaves, and flowers forming all along the stem. Flowers are orange tubes, the flower faces are yellow-green with burgundy spots.

Looks like a possible bogotensis hybrid. Both flowers and leaves are small and super cute.

Cute, small, upright-growing hybrid with very bright flowers, contrasting the small dark olive green foliage.

This is a recently acquired hybrid that just started flowering, and I’m excited to share it with you .

The plant has a very delicate and cute look to it, and seems to get covered with flowers.

So far I really like this hybrid.

Kohleria ‘Dale’s Fury fox’ is nother fun hybrid by Dale Martens. This plant has dark leaves and cute pink and white flowers.

Recently acquired hybrid. Seems to be a very heavy, generous bloomer so far, and has been growing rapidly.

Very hairy stems and flowers, make this kohleria look like a furry pet.
