Will add to my "haves" babies from one of my African Violets.
I am not sure which one--but am leaning towards the all purple one.
Trying to compare the leaves--but they are both very similar.
Either way--they are both beautiful!

Last year--I removed a ring of older leaves from the bottom of the (?) AV--and rooted them all.
All the leaves grew a bunch of babies from the stems, which I potted up in 3oz. bathroom cups.
They are doing well. I have 9 ready to go--and about 4 more that I just potted up today.
Those are a bit smaller.

Just removed another 9 leaves from the AV--gonna put them in to root in a bit...
It DOES take a while until the leaves produce 'pups"....

Will go add it to my "haves" list now. Gita
