This member of the
Gesneriaceae family was given this name by Alain Chautems in 1997.
It is found on hill sides of southern and south-eastern Brazil,
growing in a well drained but rich soil with some water and some
sun. I think the caudex can grow to seven centimetres, maybe more,
and the whole plant can reach 30 centimetres. The flowers are
pinkish red. The genera
is named after Wilhelm Sinning,1792–1874, a gardener of the
Botanische Gärten der Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn. The
species name after Gerdt Guenther Hatschbach, 1923-2013, a
Brazilian botanist. |
