Thank you for the welcome! I have enjoyed the last couple of weeks around here at DG so much! This is a standard size AV and although I can see the similarities to the Sassy Sister pics it's not the same. The apple green edges on mine are very very lacy. I have got to get a better picture! When I read the description of Guelph's Dynamite I could almost think this is it and it just does not have the dark fuchsia coloring (even though it is nothing like the picture I found, the written description sounds closer) so I'm wondering if MsCritterkeeper may be right and it changed a bit with my heavy well water and this long cold winter we are just coming out of. Especially since I thought I was very very careful with the names that came with the violets I bought. Ok, I went and took pictures in the dark and it shows the apple green lacy edge better. I would love to know if I have name right but regardless this is one of the prettiest violets I have grown and I'm very happy with it! And willing to share, maybe gessiegail in all her expertise would get the right colors out of it! ~Brenda
