Ladyslippers® Yellow Pink Cap - Streptocarpus

Ladyslippers® Yellow Pink Cap is a named color in Green Fuse Botanicals’ Streptocarpus Ladyslippers® series. Its two-tone name reflects the yellow and pink flower pattern, and the series is sold as vegetatively propagated liner plants for pots, patio containers and combination baskets. ## Growing indoors The [Green Fuse culture sheet](https://green-fuse.com/new/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/Streptocarpus-Ladyslippers.pdf) recommends light similar to African violets, with cooler leaf temperatures and reduced light during summer heat. It advises letting the medium dry to a damp condition between irrigations, using bottom watering in winter to keep cold water off leaves, and maintaining air movement to reduce evening humidity. The cultural guidance is for production, so home conditions may need adjustment. ## Maintenance Use a freely draining potting medium and water from below when practical, letting excess drain away. Keep leaves and flowers dry when watering and do not bury the crown during repotting. Remove damaged leaves and spent flowers; Green Fuse notes that an early pinch can help young plants build size before flowering.
