when I got this one several months ago, i thought she was going to be just a very mediocre....she is beautiful

Thumbnail by gessiegail
Taft, TX(Zone 9a)

The blooms are spent, but I had to have her because the bloom has a much darker center than the other variegated pink ones...

This is another which turned out to have really pretty blooms

Taft, TX(Zone 9a)

I got a couple of these because my camera doesn't do justice to how dark the blooms really are in pink..

Taft, TX(Zone 9a)

Here is the difference in the color pink....very light pink compared to the variegated one with dark centers
I have lots of these if someone wants for postage....can't keep up with any more trades!! too dingy!!

Lin

You have a dmail, Lin.......the very best news is that I met a new nursery lady last Friday who loves african violets and she gave me the name of the AV president in Corpus Christi. She advised me to join as they have the most incredible sales several times a year....named varieties...

Northwest, MO(Zone 5a)

Wonderful pictures. You most certainly have a variety of colors and all your plants look like they get good care.

Deb

Taft, TX(Zone 9a)

Of course they get good care, Deb......that's why the rest of my gardening and propagation has been put on hold (LOL)......may have to wick these AV's and get back to the grind of planting new plants in the garden, propagating so many things,etc........I do hope that wicking will work...right now I take the time to clean them daily, checking for water needs, and even flushing them all the time with a dot of soap and then clear water.....

Drumheller, Alberta, Canada(Zone 3a)
