Just beautiful, Allison. I love my Ness Cherry Smolk, too. How long have you had yours. I hope mine proves to be hardy.


I have a couple of friends who have violets that their mother raised. That would make them about 25 to 30 years old. So far I do not have any of my originals.

Thanks Jacki ! I hope you get her today ! I have boxes out for Kelly, Bob " WildBob" and Joanee. Joanne's will take a week as she is in Canada !

Nanna I have had Ness' Cherry Smoke maybe a year ?? I have grown many babies, shared leaves, of her. So she is not real big but a great bloomer .
I have fount though the plants I grow by leaf do the best for me. Grow for my enviroment. That's why it is good to buy a small healthy baby plant will adjust easier. And I always put leaves down incase it does not.
Yes I guess many people have plants that are 20 plus years old. An AV really should live forever .
Me I've only been growing little over two years. And anytimes someone comes to our homes and says it's pretty I give it to them :))

Somehow I ended up with several Mac's Carnival Clown. I know it looks kinda plain just sitting there but it used to be a leaf baby from the leaves you sent me. So amazing...
