My little plant has grown into a decent rosette quite rapidly. For a couple of weeks in June it has produced these pure yellow flowers.

It didn't produce any seed, but I am so hopeless with gesneriad seed that it doesn't really make any difference. I would like to raise a tiny army of them, but I can't see it happening.

It has overwintered well, and is has built up some strength this year.
