Rob's Jitterbug

Average Rating 5 out of 5

Jitterbug is a dependable bloomer.

This hybrid is strong and dependable... may grow a bit larger than expected... but responds to 'downsizing' and repotting... staying 'ever-young'! (I also want to say how nice Violet Barn's plants are... and arrive healthy, pest-free, and ready to impress!)

nice little plant

A gorgeous little bloomer. Mine was blooming when it arrived and has continued to bloom for over a month.

Phenomenal little plant!

I ordered this little thing 2 years ago as my first miniature. At that time I still didn't know exactly what I was doing as I was an inexperienced beginner. I still am in a way because I don't have much time for my AV hobby, unfortunately. I only grow a few plants but the Jitterbug is the only one that has gone through quite a few mistreatments and shocks and survived them all. I managed to kill many AV-s over time :( but this one is clearly invincible. It has literally come back from the dead several times and every time, with renewed attention, it turned back into a beautiful, luscious plant, as if brand new. When you see those shy blue blooms you wouldn't think it is such a resilient and hardy plant! It has also been a very good bloomer for me, despite my amateurish care. Still going strong and love it! The lighter dusty blue color of blooms is sure to please those who are attracted to soft, pastel colors. I favor the strong-contrast kind of blooms (as in Concord), so this is not my favorite color ever...but it's very pretty when in full bloom and ...oh, did I mention the resilience of this little plant??
