Another winner!

Just received a few weeks ago in excellent condition. The packing for all plants I have purchased from VB has been nothing less than amazing!!! Very healthy plant and already putting out little flower shoots. Can’t wait for this to bloom!

Non-stop

This little guy blooms non-stop for me! And the black center really sets off the bright cherry blossoms, just as colorful as pictured. Nice and compact as well.

Long lasting beauty

Have had this plant for 4 years and still going strong. Rests for a bit and then goes into a nice long bloom cycle.

Good bloomer

This plant is always in bloom for me and small enough (so far) to fit on my windowsill.

Streptocarpus Beauty!

I worked in a greenhouse in Minnesota and we always had a few Streptos to offer to our customers. Always a favorite and ever blooming! Since moving to a new state, I have been unable to find locally so am glad to find at Violet Barn. Will post review after receiving, as well.

Deep red almost velvety looking flowers!

This was the first strep I ever owned. It arrived in good shape but with only 2 small leaves and after growing another leaf or two I repotted it to a bigger pot and man did it take off growing. Now its in full bloom and almost as soon as one flower spike dies another replaces it. Though short flower stalks it still looks amazing and the flower is such a rich deep red people always point it out when they come over. Would be a nice addition to any collection. Just remember this plant you can forget to water and it might help it grow better can't say that about many plants.

Bristol's Cherry Bomb

I received this plant as part of a collection of 10 plants that I ordered. It was in bloom when I received it and has not stopped blooming. The colors are absolutely beautiful with the bright pink and the deep burgundy throat. It makes a beautiful addition to my plant stand.

cherry bomb

I received this plant as a freebie and it has not stopped blooming!! When it gets larger I will share with a friend. Great plant you will not be sorry.

Nice X'mas red!

A lovely Christmas red unlike the burgundy red that is so common. Flowers are larger than Boo Boo but slightly smaller than Hot Rod. A nice addition to your collection!
