Beautiful

I first saw this plant at a show and was told by and experienced grower, "This is a good one." He is right! I've heard it can sport, but mine is true to form. I love the large size of the blooms.

One of my all-time favorites!

I LOVE this plant! The flowers are amazing and absolutely eye catching. Whenever I have company and this plant is in bloom, I always get compliments. The plant I received was good-sized and already has doubled in size and has been blooming freely for me. This will always be in my collection.

Beautiful but was not sturdy for me

I got this plant as a small, barely established one - and it soon bloomed. The blooms were indeed very large and beautiful, with dark purple spots splattered on a pink shimmery background. Unfortunately, it did not grow very sturdy for me and in less than a year I lost it. The blooms were too large for the stems and the foliage was not abundant and strong. Maybe my conditions were not ideal - but it is worth trying for the gorgeous blooms!

I love this violet....it does not bloom often but definitely worth the wait! Mine does not have the same amount of dark purple this picture shows but it still has that splatter painted look!! Just Beautiful....love the Violet Barn!!

Beautiful colors

Since growing this vi it has become my favorite standard violet. The colors are beautiful with the pink being almost a neon or coral pink and the fantasy being vibrant blue. It blooms intensely and the flowers last quite a long time
