Aca's Inquisitive George

Average Rating 4.8 out of 5

So many blooms!

This is one very profuse bloomer. It seems to never stop! The flowers are consistently colored - beautiful dark purple with a lovely white edge - and the foliage grows symmetrically. My only caveat is that I was not successful in getting the foliage to grow flat. I grow under LED lights, so perhaps it just wasn’t getting quite enough light for the flat growth that I was looking for. If you’re looking for a lot of very nice flowers and have the right light or don’t mind more upright growth this is a winner!

mixed results

I have grown this violet twice. the first time, it was outstanding. perfect growth habit, constantly in bloom. I lost it in a transition period where I had to downsize my plant collection. I bought another last year and it has yet to bloom. it has received the same care as my other violets. I am going to adjust the fertilizer and move to a brighter location and see if that helps, but so far my experience with this plant has not been as successful as my first.

Blooms All the Time

We have enjoyed this repeat bloomer for four full years. It consistently blooms beautiful ruffled flowers. We are so glad we purchased this lovely African violet.

Absolutely stunning!

My boyfriend bought this for me and I just had to buy more! I'm placing my second order now. So awesome!

Indigo!

I was so happy to find this plant at a local nursery. Blooms are held upright and are a beautiful shade of indigo with a very thin edging of green/white - about an inch in diameter, so they are on the smaller side. The leaves have a soft oval shape, and so far the plant seems to be a strong, fast grower. Although I bought it in a 3.5 inch pot, the condition of the plant was nowhere near as good as the violets I bought here 8 months ago (which have doubled in size and are vigorous bloomers).

Wonderful long lasting blooms

I love this plant. The blooms are held high above the lovely dark green foliage.

Non-Stop George

Energizer George - always with a blue crown of blooms. The white piping isn't as pronounced, but with all those petals, who cares! Fantastic choice. It has lived three years now

Great violet

I have been able to grow this beauty sucessfully in a glass dish with soil, moss and a cloche cover, blooms were profuse and required little care but indirect light.

Profuse Bloomer!

What a great plant! Not only are the flowers GORGEOUS and truly unique, but this beauty is also a profuse bloomer. Love it!
