Absolutely stunning Sonia!
They seem to really love your windows :)
I have lots of windows too and can't wait to start putting plants on the sills :)

Hard to be gloomy even when it's raining when you are surrounded by such beautiful colors :)

Plants seem so happy at your house, Sonia. Nice job. I think everyone agrees with Kim!

Hey, bbon! Hope all is well with you :) Maybe someone will know what yours is.

Bbon I have been looking at your plant and have never seen an african violet with that type of growth habit. It almost looks more like a chirita or sinningia. Can you give me a closeup of the flower? If it is an african violet, it looks like one that has reached for light for a long time and has grown quite the neck (stalk) and the leaves are very spaced apart.
Please give me a closer shot of the flowers when you have time.

Thank you,
Kim

Yes,another picture would be great.It looks like the flowers are coming directly out of the main stem?

13 trailers? Wow, Sonia! Ya might want to go shopping for some shelves and lights and be like the rest of us addicts LOL!!! "No more new ones"...does that mean you don't want those NOID leaves?

Sonia, your plants are so pretty!

Sonia,
With your beautiful windows maybe you could figure out a way to put the trailers in little hanging baskets,staggering the lengths of the cords depending on whether the trailers are standard,mini or semi.I think it would be a glorious display.

Connie ..I know I need shelves and lighting..I just don't have the courage to tell Hubby how much a shelving unit goes for..never mind the lighting bill will increase..LOL..

Lynn I have considered that..I still have a few windows in the house witha little bit of space..I just have to re-oringize my little ones room and put them by her window..LOL

Sonia,
You can usually get stands fairly cheap at Target,Walmart,etc.I bought a 5 shelved unit and 5 $10 shoplites,so the whole stand came to $100,which is not bad compared to some of the prices I've seen.It's 48WX18DX72 tall.but the shelves adjust,so you don't have to grow anything way on the top.I hung a shoplite from the ceiling,so I will have a place for hanging baskets.
Actually you won't see much of a change on your light bill.That's the cheapest part of this hobby LOL.
