Irish Flirt a plant that always blooms !
This little plant was a sucker from the plant I gave to Lali. It was blooming way before she visited and while she was here and still blooming. Irish Flirt an African violet that always blooms !

I've showed flowers from my favorite Chirita ! The other day the bloom stalk had one flower and it does not even look like more are there . It's so different and cool the first time it happened. Then more just keep coming on the one stalk last time I had 20 flowers on one. It got so heavy I cut it off and it bloomed in a vase for weeks :))
One time ( when I had room under lights for it) the stalks went all around the plant each have several flowers !

Allison,
Thanks for the pictures. Love Irish Flirt, and the red Christmas Morning!

Yes, you did send a blooming Funny Bunny! It's a beauty! None of them bloom much for me, but I've figured out the problem, and remedied it, and I have several that are putting up bloom stalks and the buds haven't dried up. I had to put everyone on pebble trays. It was just too dry in here. I'd see a bud and be so tickled, then it would go all crispy on me. Gotta love gas heat!

Yes Amy must be the humidity . As they sat in natural light in my windows blooming non-stop. And we even had to run heat a lot .
I'm really lucky with blooms. I also hve pretty good watering and feeding system. Sure hope they start blooming for you again. They always were in full bouquets !
Thanks Anna and Sharon :))

Several of them have buds on them, so I know humidity was the problem. Glad I've found out what it was!
