Last winter during an ice storm we lost power for a few days. Among the casualties was my collection of AV's. I salvaged these two. I had resolved not to amass another group like I had again, but as fall approaches and I look at these two survivors I find myself wishing for just a couple more.
Would anyone be interested in trading leaves for leaves?
Thanks for looking,
Alana
AV Leaves for trade, Ma's White Elephant and Fairy Fountains
i'd be interested as i am just starting back into av's. On vacation in NJ, live in fl.so if you still have to trade in end of Sept. --- i'd have a few plantlets --- if they survive the babysitters care. helene
Hi There;
If you are looking for av leaves i am sure i can spare some. I have a good collection going now, let me know what you like
bonnie.
Bonnie you are soo good and kind. helene
Helene, let me know if you still want to trade when you get back to your plants this fall. I should have plantlets of Fairy Fountains then.
You are right; mrsbonnie is very kind!
mrsbonnie, my tastes in AV's is pretty varied. My favorite all time in my collection was Irish Whisper which is a pale beige pink with green edges. Whites and pastels are my favorite tones and I love ones with more than one color or contrasting edging. I don't really have a preference for girl or boy foliage and I like mini's and trailers just as well as standards. I had started collected Ma's varieties and had several of them.
Thank you both for responding!

Alana;
Please send me your address & i will get a box ready for you. I will look for any pink with green.
Bonnie

Everyone here knows how sweet Bonnie is (unless they have been hiding in a closet) LOL.

Ms. Bonnie is absolutely THE BEST!
She sparked my interest in growing again and has been SO kind to me too!
Bonnie we all thank you so much for your kindness and love.
Soon we will all be back posting again once fall/winter sets in.
I have not forgotten your box either and plan to mail out the beginning of this week 2 my friend ;)

ahhhhh there you go again. just always nice to share such a great hobby. buttttt be careful, can cost you big time. It can become an addiction. lol

Well said Helene
I have to agree with all of the accolades for Bonnie. What a thoughtful person she is. I know she selected each leaf she sent me because it matched my preferences and I am very grateful.
I thought I was through with African Violets, but I have a feeling I am just getting started again.
Thank you Bonnie!
Alana
you are more than welcome.. I think we all go thru that, thinking we are finished with growing violets at one time or another, but then we usually get them back again but usually a little more selective. I grow alot of gessies & really love it.
