Fabulous! Mine has not bloomed in a little while, not sure why.

Hi Toula,

Beautiful. I usually have a way of killing African Violets. But your pic makes me want to try again. Merry Christmas!

Toula,

I agree with Lisa, never had much luck with African Violets blooming. Maybe it had something to do with me treating them like mushrooms. They are very pretty, Merry Christmas ma'am.

My Christmas Cactus surprised me and bloomed, even though I transplanted it over the summer. That violet is lovely and a great Christmas present!

After a day of gray skies and rain it's nice to see this pop of color. Now we're back in the holiday spirit!

A few years back I had several African Violets on my kitchen counter. For one reason or another, I didn't replace them as they died off. Your photo makes me want to try raising some once again.

Hi Toula - Your violets are lovely. Years ago I had a plant on my desk at my office and my employees were so interested that I got them each one for their desks. Turns out theirs had white blooms so they still favored mine. Oh well.

I have raised AV's for show (and won many) but I don't have room for many now. Once I had over 500. I love them; that's a beauty, Toula. See some of my violets
