I'm fascinated by the trailing types. The first one I ever saw was at Carousel Violets in Winston-Salem, NC (fantastic store, neat lady, but call for hours as her schedule is random), and she hadn't propagated it yet. But next year I got one from her -- 'Marion's Enchanted Trail' -- and it's picture is below. I've propagated several babies, but then I lost the parent, so I've only had this one potted up for a year, and I guess it's still too young to trail. The first one I saw had half a dozen trailers (4 to 7 inch) spilling out of a 3 inch pot, in full bloom -- just amazing.
