First plant

I was given this type of African Violet by my father-in-law. I have a black thumb when it comes to plants. So far I have transplanted this plant 6 times for friends and because it continues to out grow its pots. It has bloomed for the last 6 months straight and I am loving talking and taking pictures of it everyday.

Can't lose with this one! I like to give these as gifts because they're so easy to care for - I include a short Care & Feeding Guide from my word processor for the recipient ...

For every collection

As a collector, I appreciate the chance to own the original African violet. Mine arrived in excellent condition.

small but wonderful

I received 2 of these violets with buds on them. One bud opened yesterday and is small and sweet. Its' amazing how may hybrids came from this simple flower.
