Irish Glen

Average Rating 4.9 out of 5

Happily surprised

I only received my plants in June, just ~2 months ago, and arrived quickly to Ohio.....TWO ARE BLOOMING already & the other two are sending out scapes; IRISH GLEN has 5 scapes and more on the way!! IRISH GLEN has huge double blooms matching the description above. At first I was hesitant to order due to the pricing, but this is worth it. Plants are very well packed and none arrived damaged. Colors & patterns sold here are unmatched and unavailable from the usual local stores. No more hesitations at all, and we'll be adding more again soon.

Abundant cheery green pom-poms

I received this plant in the spring as a freebie. This has turned out to be a lovely addition to my collection. Thanks to the Violet Barn for introducing me to this very pretty and interesting "green" violet. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 stars is that I am still hesitate about "greens" in general.

Hardy and Healthy!

I purchased this beauty a few months back. Although it took a good while for blooms to appear, they now seem to be popping up left and right and all at once! They look to be opening any day now and I cannot wait!

Irish Glen

After starting new plants from the one purchased the flowers opened better and it is one of my favorites.

So Excited!

Irish Glen came packaged so protectively with beautiful, healthy foliage. I hardly can’t wait to see the first bud appear!

Gorgeous green!

This plant is an absolute stunner. One of the first to bloom, absolutely covered in buds. Just gorgeous. The flowers are more like green rosebuds, with many layers, and they grow enormous! Love this plant so much.

Love the yellow

Five star for beauty, thank you Violet Barn

Blooms readily

A vigorous grower that isn’t shy with its blooms. Out of the lot I ordered, this was one of the first to put out buds. The flowers are a creamy green-white and are absolutely adorable.

Irish Glen is Bulletproof!

This is one of the healthiest, most vigorous, most reliable varieties that I've ever grown. Pretty, too, if you favor greens.

Spectacularly Generous Bloomer

This little plant can make newbies feel like an African Violet pro! She arrived with two large blooms and then burst into more...and more...and more.... She is in a Southwestern window, and so far has been happy. Color is a soft yellow-green.

Good so far

I purchased this based on the reviews, and the fact that I'm new to African violets so it seemed like this plant was a good place to start. No flowers yet but the leaves look full and healthy so we'll see what happens.

Reliable Bloomer

Irish Glen arrived with a couple buds and has been in constant bloom since I got it. The blooms last a very long time. I keep it on a windowsill with indirect, natural light and the full, green kissed, double flowers add a freshness to the room.

Fabulous!

Fabulous, unique plant. Highly recommend this for anyone who enjoys this color family!

Irish Glen

I got my plant in October and it has doubled in size and now has buds all over it. The buds first appear to be light yellow. I am real excited to see it full bloom. Carolyn Hill

I ordered Irish Glen near the end of last October. She started blooming for me on my birthday in February and has not stopped blooming. I just love her.

Great Plant for a Beginner

I am new to violets. I bought two of these plants in May. They grew fast and have bloomed constantly!

Exceptional Plant

Irish Glen, is the most prolific bloomer I have ever had! THe blooms last for months and once it gets blooming I have had 25-50 blooms on the plant at 1 time. I highly recommend this plant. It is my favorite and it will become yours too!!!

love it

This cute little plant has the biggest blooms I have seen in a long time. I really like African Violets and am always looking for something different that will stand out from the rest and this does the trick. I am an avid collector of these fun plants. Try this one I think you will enjoy the blooms just like I do.
