Graveyard--these are the plants I have killed.  Most of them recently. Don't judge me.

 

Beanstalk (D. Senk) Bugs!
Dangerous (Sorano)

While not in bloom (they are a strong dark pink) this plant is nice for its symmetry.  It is also very small--it is in a one inch pot.

This plant has done something very interesting.  I cut off it's head to get a few good suckers--and the second picture is what happened. 

I tossed mine.  Gave one to my aunt, and it is doing well in her window.

Kindergarten Kid (Stokes) Killed with neglect.  Yikes!
Nymph Fly (Dates) Not as robust as a similar plant that I had, decided to toss it during the bug infestation. Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
Optimara EverGrace (Holtkamp) Got bugs...wasn't important enough to keep. Fall 2007
Rob's Hand Puppet (Robinson)  It was pretty, but chronically a problem.  I just got tired of this one.  Image hosted by Photobucket.com
S. ionatha Bugs!    My grandma has a plant, maybe I'll take a start.
S. orbicularis Bugs
Unknown "Library"

I rescued this one from the library break room.  Turned out that the owner had retired years before.  I was the only one that watered it--so I took it with me when I graduated. 

When it first bloomed for me, it was much different than this.  First blooms resembled S. ionatha.  By second bloom, this is what I had.  It really confused me at the time. 

I really miss this plant!  It was a good companion.  If I had paid more attention, it would have been fine.

Chirita "Moonlight" (Bogan)  Bugs
Chirita tamiana

Lost to bugs--I really miss this one too.  I had a bunch of them in a bonsai pot together and they were very pretty.

Petrocosmea minor struggled with this one a lot...didn't want to continue.  Might try another petrocosmea again.
Sinningia cardinalis

Just didn't like it as much as others.  Prefer fibrous to bulb plants.
