The Alps

Average Rating 4.9 out of 5

Wow!!!

i just received my order and The Alps was probably the violet that wowed me the most (and that's among eight plants ordered). It arrived in bloom and I was blown away by the beauty of it. I also love the name, as I have always wanted to go to Switzerland, and this violet reminds me of that dream. A sure stand out in my collection!

Excellent Show Plant

Gorgeous flowers in contrast on dark green foliage. Plant grows very symmetrically. Excellent bloomer and one of my favorite chimeras. Packaging was great with no damage and plant arrived in full bloom. Violet Barn is the BEST source for Chimera African Violets.

Great Chimera

This is one of my favorite chimeras. The color contrast is subtle, yet beautiful. Great bloomer as well.

So pretty!!

The Alps looks pale and a little boring online but in reality it's gorgeous! Love my Violet Barn Alps.

Hands down, my favorite chimera

This is my favorite chimera and definitely one of my "must haves" for my collection. This is just one of those plants that grows itself! The symmetry is amazing and WOW does this one out on a show when it blooms!
