My favorite miniature

He blooms are so bright and cheery and the leaves have a nice color and size. This is one of my favorites in my collection.

Lovely Plant

I received this plant from VB in mid-July, so now, in early November, it still hasn't bloomed. I'm doing my best to wait patiently! The foliage is very pretty, a khaki-green with a little pinkish variegation and pale backing. Its newest foliage is a darker green with a blush-purple backing and stem, which is really beautiful. The quilting is very gentle, not pebbly like it looks in the photo, and adds greatly to the plant's attractiveness. I've been getting a little cupping in the leaves, but this is almost certainly a cultural thing…I'm new to AVs! I grow under glass, which seems to be helping this little guy stay a happy plant. All in all, I'm very happy with it!

Breathtaking

Just received this plant yesterday, already with blooms. No sign yet of the pink fantasy or white edge(probably because it's such a baby.)It was still a breathtaking plant when I unwrapped it. Actually what I said was, "Holy cr*p!" Gorgeous, large, deep blue bloom. But what really blew me away was the purple variegation on the dark, velvety leaves! I can't wait to see what it does when it grows up!

Rob's Outer Orbit

I had this violet several years ago and it was so beautiful! It bloomed true every time and was very easy to grow. When I moved I couldn't take my violets with me so now I am ordering again to restart my violet collection. I love Rob's minis!
