Logee's Cape Primrose Eternity
Best long blooming houseplant for indoor garden enthusiasts.
This is the rare houseplant that balances high-drama, double-petaled blooms with genuine pet safety. While the flowers offer year-round color, you have to be disciplined about watering; keep the moisture strictly at the soil level to protect those delicate, ruffled leaves from spotting.
