Harold Makes Me Happy
Happy Harold is one of my favorite violets. The variegation on the leaves is stunning and the flowers are delightful. Happy Harold was registered in 1971...proof that some of the oldies are as good or better than some newest violets. If you want a plant that will look outstanding when it's not in bloom select Happy Harold.
hardy Happy Harold
I excitedly purchased this guy, because of the wonderful contrast of dark purple flowers to the white in the variegated leaves! This plant is not only stunning, he is also made of some tough stuff as he has dealt with less than stellar conditions in my freezing single pained kitchen....Now his flowers are a tad pale but he's been blooming since he arrived and has steadily doubled his size :D
A classic
I've recently neglected my collection and this plant is a trooper, and very forgiving. Beautiful contrast of bloom and variegation.
One of My favorites!
I love this plant! Everyone that has seen it wants to have one too, which is why I'm back to buy more!
Very Disappointed
6/2/14 I ordered Happy Harold a couple months back and I was very happy, the leaves very striking, but when it did arrive, it had brown spots on 3-4 of the leaves, and with in 2 days the leaves were completely brown and wilted, even the tiny baby leaf had brown on it. I called Rob and told him, he said I'll refund your money! I said no, no I'll just buy another one ,let me do that now. He gave the money back anyway. I waited a couple weeks and re-ordered the violet. I got it Friday May 3oth, 2014 and I'm very disappointed, it looks nothing like the photo. All the leaves are green, not a speck of white. Also Rob had said if I put in the comment box a violet I'd like for my "freebie" he would send that violet if he had it , if not one similar to it. Well, he sends me a Mini violet(I don't like mini's, that's why I don't order them!!)"Irish Flirt", hate the plant, pale green tiny flowers, look just like the leaves , in fact it's hard to even notice the blooms because they blend too much with the leaves. Since December I have ordered 10 violets, got 2 freebies, ordered 2 violets for my sister and had them shipped to her. Rob, I didn't want the money refunded on the first Happy Harold, I just wanted to order one fast to get a nice pretty one!! Out of all the violets I have ordered, 8 of them have never bloomed!! they get the very nice East sunlight, I have to rotate them the leaves grow toward the window, I feed them, but no blooms. Not Happy about Happy Harold, no variegated leaves!!
