If you are looking for the big, showy hybrid “Gloxinias” we are unlikely to ever offer seeds of these.  Botanically these are Sinningia speciosa.  We do periodically offer seed of species sinningias which generally have smaller flowers and a different habit. What is offered depends on what I’m sent.   They don’t much resemble the gaudy florist gloxinias.  I believe their is a gesneriad society in the US (google is your friend) and they may offer seed of gloxinias and sinningias.
