Mas Stewed Tomato

Average Rating 4.7 out of 5

Gonna keep trying!

For some reason, I have a hard time with this one. But it's such a simple, elegant plant and it stops you and makes you look when its in bloom. So much so, I am determined to keep trying.

Beautiful Plant!

I purchased this plant last year and it has not disappointed me at all! I love the red flowers and the foliage is gorgeous! Has been very easy to grow.

Hoping it survives

I have always had luck with violets. The last order did not do very well. I just can’t pass up these exotic colors.

Beautiful!

Thank you so much for the beautiful plants! I bought 3 and they're so healthy and bigger than I expected. Also, thank you so much for your informative website which has all the help to take care of and how to grow your own babies. Again, thank you!

Gorgeous plant!

Plant was well packed and suffered no damage in transit. Plant itself is soooo gorgeous, hasn't bloomed yet but the leaves area pretty dark color with cream edging, and the backs are this cool subdued purple color! Can't wait until it blooms!!!! Thanks Violet Barn!!!!

Stunning Red

I bought this stunning Ma's Stewed Tomato African Violet because of its brilliant red color. This was my first time shopping at Violet Barn and it was hard to choose, but when I saw that red, I knew! It arrived so small like the others but took longer to grow. It was well worth it when it started to bloom. It got so big I had to transplant. I am writing about this lovely plant for my freebie!

Beautiful

I received this violet along with two others a few months ago. Still waiting for this one to grow. It's still in the original pot it came in, but it looks very healthy. All of the plants arrived in great condition. Thank you

Ma's Stewed Tomato

I can't remember how many years it's been since I bought Stewed Tomato from Rob and Ma, but I loved the color and the name. It arrived here timely in excellent condition (as did (and does) everything I've ever ordered from them). It was a lovely plant and it bloomed shortly after I received it. Unfortunately, it only lived for a few years before my not always green-thumb did something wrong . . . today I ordered a different red - but I know I'll be back for Stewed Tomato again one of these days.

Love It!

Not only is the name of this violet great, but the whole plant is.I think the blooms are definitely red and they are only part of the package. The foliage is outstanding; dark green with pinkish red variegation. As a whole, Beautiful!

Not red

This is not a fast grower though it has bloomed some. It is definitely not a red. I have it sitting next to Almost Autumn and there is no difference between the color of the blooms.

terrific plant!

I have several "red" AVs, and in my opinion, this is one of the best. A nice clear red color, and the foliage, with its red edge and back, sets the blooms off to perfection.
