The Streptocarpus Page
I start most of my streps from cuttings, so to show you how to do it, follow this link to my propagation from cuttings page.
I do a fair amount of propagation from seed also, to see how to start from seed, follow this link: starting from seed. To see some of the streps I have started from seed, follow this link: streps started from seed.
