Average Rating 4.9 out of 5

Sweetheart of a Violet

Dolores Sugar Candy is a name befitting this sweetheart of a plant. I ordered it because the product description states that Violet Barn highly recommends this one. True to their word, I couldn’t be happier! This has quickly become one of my very favorite violets. The plant has such pretty, rich-pink flowers, which never fade under my full-spectrum grow lights, as some other pinks have. The color and shape of the blooms are prettier than the photo. Nice dark green foliage that grows compact and symmetrical. Just love this little gal!

Arrived in excellent condition with many buds

This little beauty arrived in excellent condition with buds that have started to open. Nice bubblegum pink flowers with edging, and forest green leaves.

J have had this plant foursome time now. It has been a very easy plant to grow and flower. It is one of the few mini's that have done well for me.

Miniature violets

I love the mini violets. Arrive healthy and some are even blooming. Have ordered several times. Great product and fast shipping.

Blooms Galore !!!

This plant is beautifully shaped and arrived in perfect condition. And what a prolific bloomer - I received my little violet covered in tiny pink blossoms. I would definitely recommend this violet for a hobbyists collection.

Delicate but fast grower

So cute!

This hybrid is so cute and petite. The pink blooms are the perfect color of pink and the white edge is just icing on the cake. The growth habit is good. I recommend this little guy if you like violets small and perfect.

Compact bloomer!

Shapes nicely, blooms frequently, stays compact - a real plus for those with limited space, like me.

Showy violet!

A beautiful plant that blooms constantly. The flowers are a bright pink and the number of blooms catches your attention.

This plant is a bright and cheery flower machine. Propagates well too. Stays small.

I'm not the best AV grower, but Delores keeps hanging in there. I've had her for several years and she keeps blooming. This is a great beginner plant. Thanks

Dolores Sugar Candy

Appropriate name for this "sweet" little violet. When it arrived, it was full of tiny pinkish buds. Can't wait until they open! This will go perfectly in my fairy garden for it is just the right size.

This violet arrived blooming and hasn't stopped! It shows two shades of pink and the green edges contrast beautifully. All violets arrived in great condition--thanks for sending with care. I'm hooked!

Blooms it's little heart out!

The picture does not do this plant justice! There are magenta stripes radiating from a darker pink center, and out towards frilly green-tinted edges. The blooms remind me of being somewhere tropical, which is always nice on a dreary Seattle day. Also a plus: this plant is either already in bloom or is the first to do so in a multi-plant order. I highly recommend this sweet little mini!
