I will post the photo soon, once I put it to the computer.

{{{{{{{{Violet Begonia}}}}}}}}}XXXXXXX
Spider's box arrived....
wonderful, cant wait for pictures.
Me too! I got one of my two today! Hope the other arrives tomorrow!
p.s. Ali says if they aren't wrapped well that I'm fired! (like Donald Trump fired!) LOL.
kidding Allison, since I learned from the master, I hope I did o.k.
lol....this is amazing!!
Anna so happy you got your box :)) Hope you like everything ! Do me a favor and when you get a chance Dmail me the names of your plants so I can send you First Class info. Begonia messed it up lol HEHA
Diane " 1gardengram" got her two boxes today too ! So you know Laurie and I was busy. It takes me 4 hours to pack one person plants alone and hubby tapes the boxes..
Laurie it's funny you only got one stack of boxes today. Should I call them stack of two large prirority boxes rather than box of plants. lol So many times I ship people more boxes and they don't arrive the same day. I always think the Post Person does not want to carry so many boxes. Robert had to bring the dolly to ship them all. as there were 8 large priority boxes went out Wednesday and no way he can carry them all even if they are taped two together.
How are your plants Laurie ? Did you get the boxes we packed together or the one I finsihed myself when we fount the other tray of plants . lol
I'm so glad you all like your new plants and leaves. Laurie you did not forget the leaves you took on the plane did you !
Enjoy and Thank you for letting me share my Joy of growing African violets by leaf :))
No, I planted them up already. Along with some others that I rec'd 'Beanstalk', Aly's Key Lime Pie, and Neverland Dreams (cool girlie foliage)
So, Georgia Melon and Lillian n' Lace as well at those above got put in the perlite tray. (so many rooted while I was away, I can't even think of getting to repotting them until this weekend, good thing we have rain forecast)
I haven't opened my box from you (my 'stack' of boxes) I'm still potting up begonias and such... but i'm being lazy about it. I take lots of breaks to check the computer and fiddle around.
I do it the same way Laurie :)) Hope all is well with them. I'll get you FC info,Strep info and Rusians plant info to you tomorrow:)) I meant to give you some Epsicas. Well next boxes :))
Can't wait to see 'em! : )
These are my babies.
This is my russian AV. I got it from Bluebird about 2 weeks ago.
Her name is Koltsa Dyma.

I have to send you the rest tomorrow. Hope your Crystal Dawn does well. I had to fight to win the Mom plant. I like the Crystal series.
All my Russians I think I have 6 do real well except my Koltsa Dyma . It was real tiny when I boguth it last fall and I have fought to try to make it healthy. It's never bloomed. It's just never been right from day one. Your lucky yours is well. My other Russians are great. ! Hope you like the one I sent. You can see the picture on Bluebirds !
Oh my goodness Laurie you wrapped them and set them up to go into the boxes :)) I'll tell you what if it was not for Laurie I would not have got Anna's, Diane,
and a box to Deb out in one week. And 4 large priority boxes to Laurie ! I would have been lucky to get one person's out and it can take me 4 or more hours sometimes naps in-between. I was and am so grateful for Laurie help !
Ali, you should have cracked the whip on me the day before, instead of me just jabbering on like I did, I could have been wrapping plants! LOL.
Mine are sitting in trays awaiting their new home. I think I'm going to clear a shelf and make a new light stand. I have two more of those metal shelves in my playhouse that have lots of storage stuff on them. Taking up valuable AV space!
wow, those are great, Spider. Way to go, Allison!
Thanks Pam Thanks laurie for all your help. Yes Laurie we should have pacakge more. AS is was Monday Robert went to the post office with double box for Deb. And Wed. he went with 4 double boxes/8 large Priority boxes :)) He had to use his dolly :))
Laurie this Russian I gave you I grew both our plants from one leaf. Well mine is in 4 inch pot and has sucker babies I took off. It's full of buds and they look like they will bloom to description ! I can't wait :))
You will have to take your sucker babies off when their big enough and re-pot soon to 4 inch pot. They grow large fast.
