Rob's Dust Storm

Average Rating 4.6 out of 5

Dust Storm

The plant arrived in great shape but within a few weeks I noticed it failing. I contacted The Violet Barn and they were very nice and offered to replace it with my next order. However, I decided to harvest the leaves and try to propagate them. It worked and now I have 5 gorgeous violets. They have dark velvety leaves and are now blooming lovely flowers. I gave it 5 stars for how great the outcome was. Love Violet Barn.

Amazing!

I got this violet about 6 weeks ago, lots of leaf growth and it now has 3 stalks of buds emerging. Dust Storm is going to be a blooming machine!

Amazing!!

My favorite african violet. It has been blooming constantly for over a year!! It's such a beautiful plant and excellent bloomer. Mine is mostly pink though.

Constant Blooms!

This is the happiest little plant. I've had it for nearly a year and it's been in constant bloom. I'm an amateur grower, but this plant didn't care. Mine doesn't have as many purple spots, but the serrated leaves are just spectacular.

Pretty little bloomer

Rob's Dust Storm is always in bloom and makes the perfect bouquet above the dark foliage.So easy to grow you just can't go wrong with this little beauty.

Wonderful grower

Probably one of the easiest varieties to grow. Nice form, does not sucker a lot. Beautiful flowers.

Gorgeous Color

Love the gorgeous color. Good size blooms as well. My favorite out of the nine violets I purchased.

Great bloomer

Great little bloomer! Has constant blooms and looks great against dark foliage.

This little one rocks

This is my all-time favorite mini-violet. The one I had never stopped blooming, even when it was young. The foliage grew very uniform, and the variegation was perfect. Mine even won several Blue Ribbons when shown. I'm actually ordering another one today!

Love my Dust Storm

Have only had it for about a month but it has bloomed continuously since I received, the blooms are exactly like the pictures and last very long.

Another color

Mine bloomed plain ol purple. Batting 50/50 on these fantasies.

Love my Dust Storm

I have owned one of Rob's Dust Storms for 5 or 6 years now. This violet is so hardy! I have really put it through the wringer: cat attacks, sun burns, broken crown that required a re-root emergency. This little guy always bounces back better then ever. I am so glad to see that the Dust Storm is featured right now (4/2011). Mine blooms like crazy and stays happy despite the sometimes ill treatment it receives.

Great Fantasy

What a great fantasy! The plant really does knock itself out with blooms as well. The only reason I'd give it 4 stars instead of 5 is that my plant has so many blooms at times that the foliage isn't always symetrical.

rob's dust storm

we owned this wonderful violet while in colorado for a long number of years and it's a great violet that kept on blooming. We placed a recent order and I don't think anyone could be disappointed in Rob's violets. We've also had others of Rob's and just great! Thank you.
