Fun, fun Noid. =D
NOID blooms in GREEN!
Those flowers almost look chimeral! Hope you have some babies put down, cause you know I'm gonna beg for one! (grin)
DO you think it is a mini? Cuz if so it sure looks like one of my minis!
Beg I thought Chimera when I saw it too ! Beautifl !
You know what, Crazii? I haven't bothered putting leaves down....you know, 'cause I had snobbish 'noid' thoughts going. ;-) I've had this one for ages, and almost chunked it because it wouldn't bloom for me........then, I get these all of a sudden! Lorry, I don't think it's a mini.....I mean, it's in a standard sized pot, and didn't bloom 'til I put it in there. But, who knows? That's the joy of noids, huh? And, I've never had a chimera, so I'm not sure about that.........it's almost as though it has thumbprints in green. ?
Off to take some leaves, and to try separating out a little sucker without breaking it.......cross those fingers....................=)

MKJ, what you need are a pair of really sharp needle nose snips to pop out those suckers! You should head over to my contest to try and win them! Hee Hee!
Think it is emerald love?
That is the one I have that I thought it was similiar too.
and to be honest I am not sure if my emeral is a mini...maybe not but it is still small and blooming!

Ooooooooh, I'm giving it a go at your contest! What fun--terrific idea! One small, er, "technical" question. Is it cheating if you research some of the more indepth questions? And, GRIN, I know that first extra credit answer! lol
I also use an exacto knife which can be bought at a hobby shop :)
Lorry, by jove you've got it!!!!!!! That's exactly who this is--'Emerald Love.' You see, I once had hundreds of violets.......got a bit out of control........and, a few tags were lost here and there. I had bought that one, and whoops! Didn't know "where" it'd gone to--voila! Noid blooms, and Lorry has a twin. =) Yips for me.
First Class 2: Emerald Love (E. Kolb) Semidouble creamy white/wide green edge. Dark green, wavy/red back. Standard.
Too cool.......thanks, Lorry!
MKJ
LOL you are quite welcome :)
and Begonia doesn't need one! I have a plantlet for her if she wants one!
I thought this one looked familiar! She truly is a LOVELY plant!
Oh, I use those exactos like they're going out of style........works wonders on my Roomba too. lol I'll try to keep my hand especially still to get Emerald's sucker baby.........think my reputation w/Crazii might depend on it! LOL
MKJ, no, it's not cheating. Use any method you need to find the answers, but don't look at the student's paper next to you. Keep your eyes on your own paper. LOL (remember hearing that in elementary school?)
I added the extra credit in case someone cant find an answer.
Wowowowowo Allison..that is SOMETHING!
Yes ! MK and Beg what do you think ? It's the first thing I saw when I saw the pictures Chimera :))
Ali, here's that same photo but a closer view on the AVS site

MK are you sure its EL not EC?
Well, I KNOW I bought it as 'Emerald Love,' simply because I'm too "tight" for buying chimeras! lol But, perhaps she's sported on me? Guess that sucker'll be the judge......
