Thanks for the nice compliments! I bought my violets (except for the pink NOID standard) from Iceberg2000 (Karin); store is Blossoms, Birds & Butterflies on Ebay. The white one is Golden Eye (semi-mini) with faint pink center blush around the yellow. I mist them all twice a day in the winter as it is so dry in my apartment, use Shultz food every time I water, and they either get natural sunlight or special lighting. Also they each sit up on "glass toppers" in saucers of water...not IN the water, mind, but just above it. I made sure I bought variegated foliage violets as I just KNEW they would never bloom for me and the foliage itself is so pretty! ChuLin
