Beautiful

I received this plant in perfect condition. All my plant were packed so well. This plant has buds on it and I can't wait to see them open.

Hardy

This plant has suffered a lot since coming into my hands. I went through a bad breakup and neglected my plants for a while, and this is one of the only plants from my last order that are still hanging on and doing ok. I even moved into the Rocky Mountains and have subjected it to a harsher climate. I decided that since it is still alive, I am going to do my best to take care of it and give it a fighting chance. Just repotted it two days ago. I recommend this plant to anyone who doesn’t have a green thumb.

Update on my 2012 review!

I've gone through many changes and a major move since I previously had Red Lantern. So, this summer I reordered this variety. It now has its first buds and I can hardly wait for them to open! Red Lantern is an older Lyons variety that's well worth adding to our current collections. I would hate to see it vanish like so many older violets have. All my orders this summer and fall have arrived in excellent condition. I love the way the Violet Barn packs! Cheryl Burkley

Wonderfully beautiful violet!

My mom, who has just terrible luck with african violets, received this little guy as a gift from a friend last year. I recently visited, and she has managed to kill all three of the thriving suckers that I had started for her, but this plant was THRIVING! She's so proud of it! I fell in love with the gorgeous LARGE flowers... and ordered one for myself!

Great flowers

Red lantern is the most beautiful violet. It has grown to the size of my head in a year's time and the flowers are plentiful and vivid. It is a show piece violet.

Red Lantern

I recieved this plant in my last shipment. I had a hard time choosing which red to order...and boy am I glad I got this one! The plant is growing fast and blooming now. I love the very dark almost maroon red flowers with the crisp white edge. Very showy and eye-catching! This one is a keeper! And Violet Barn....thanks for the careful packing. This one...and all the others in that order...arrived in GREAT condition! Cheryl Burkley
