Sinningia polyantha
A tuberous gesneriad recorded only from the coastal lowlands of Santa Catarina in southern Brazil, mostly below 40 m. It grows through a warm, wet summer and a mild, still-wet winter, and like most tuberous Sinningia it slows down or dies back in the cooler months. Little is published about this species itself, so the conditions here lean on the measured climate and on related Atlantic-forest Sinningia.
Where it grows wild
Atlantic forest edges and rocky slopes near the coast of southern Brazil; related species sit in leaf litter, soil pockets or on rock in partial shade. Specific microhabitat for this species is not well documented.
Records run from 5 to 36 m (median 13 m), essentially coastal lowland; one outlying climate site lies inland near 815 m.
