Now, now, no cringing at seeing this topic come up ladies :))) This should be the last time!!! Alas I won't get to name my violet as a sport of some kind.....LOL

While I was on vacation I received a d-mail from an interested person that had been reading the thread but not posting. She had noticed the seller I had bought this violet from selling a very similar looking violet and it was called Silverglade Oysters....

I've just taken the time to research it and we have a winner!! The foliage is right and the blooms are right .....especially leaving room for no two blooms being alike....

So first a link to a good shot of the blooms.....pink doubles with green lacy trim http://qwip.net/silverglades/oysters.htm

And now a link to a good shot of the whole plant with the foliage that is like mine in color and shape etc

And one last shot of mine from a few days ago, I do love this plant.
