Ma's Jamaica Farewell

Average Rating 4.8 out of 5

One of the easiest

Of all the violets I’ve gotten from Violet Barn this one has got to be my favorite because it was so forgiving and hardy. Beautiful and unusual, it looks like it’s finicky but it’s not.

Gorgeous!

The blooms & foliage on this violet are beautiful!

Beautiful and hardy

My plant arrived looking very healthy and robust, and it already had a bloom! I keep it in my eastern window and follow my usual water/fertilizer routine; it already has four new blooms with more buds on the way. I've only had this plant for a couple months, and it's already one of my favorites.

Not my Fave

I wanted to like this hybrid more than I actually do, as I have waited quite a while to be able to grow it. Firstly, the flowers are not double, they are very much single wavy blooms of dark pink. The foliage was not variegated as shown either. I also found it to be a shy bloomer. All in all, just didn't meet the description and therefore my expectations.

My personal favorite

At 15 inches across, with gorgeous pink & green foliage and full of hot pink blossoms, this beauty was the star of our winter show. I had so many requests for leaves, including from one of the judges! That was the one request I couldn't turn down. Was still a novice when I bought Jamaica Farewell from Violet Barn, and two years later, I'm winning top awards with Ma's wonderful hybrids. Thank you to both Ma and Rob!
