This is my first time ordering I have searched the internet for days and hours now and these plants are exactly what I'm looking for I can't wait to receive them

So tiny!

This is a wonderful little plant. The blooms are pretty and long lasting. I am ordering 2 more, as they are small enough to have a couple on my desk at work.

Wonderful!

This plant was the first of many plants I've bought from The Violet barn 10 years ago, and it is fantastic. It is an easy grower, and constant bloomer. Very hardy too. Great for those of us who forget to water from time to time :-)

Very unusual!

This little plant is absolutely adorable and is about to bloom with at least three or four blossoms per bud. It may be small but it is certainly showy!
