constant bloomer

This is my favorite species violet so far! It just blooms and blooms. I do grow under lights so I don't know how it would do without them. Just looking at it brings joy to my heart!

Constantly Blooming

I love this plant, of all my African Violets this one is the only one that blooms year round.

So Sweet

I recently received this species violet for my collection. I was so excited for it to arrive because I have always wanted one. This one came in bloom with the sweetest blue purple blooms. I just love the simplicity of this one. It is a healthy plant & came very well packaged.

Plant blooming as a baby

Arrived about 2 weeks ago and was in bud. I've transplanted to a 4 inch pot and it hasn't stopped blooming. The plant is growing larger steadily while it continues blooming and producing more buds. The flowers are a lovely light blue-lilac with a little sparkle to the petal like many hybrids have. I love Saintpaulia species. The flowers aren't as flashy as hybrid but they are blooming machines and hardy as can be.

A beautiful species plant!

I just love this plant - very sturdy & hardy, grows easily under lights or indirect sunlight, blooms almost constantly!
