Got this one at Lowe's today. Picture shows the color pretty accurately. Plant is 4.5" across. Any idea what variety it might be? Thanks.

Very pretty!

No idea on its ID, though...

Randi,
It's almost impossible to ID an African Violet,because there are so many thousands of them.Chances are it is one of the Optimaras or Rhapsodies.Was there any kind of tag?

Yep, the tags said House & Patio African Violet, and Lowe's on the front of the tag. On the back there were only care instructions. I thought it very strange that there was no grower's name. Anyone else see AVs with these tags?

I guess a first step would be to see who Lowes gets them from.
