African Violets

Blue Tail Fly (Dates)

It has purple wasp blooms, meaning the top two petals are substantially smaller than the others; and also has bustle foliage.  See the strange little leaves off the back of the main leaf?  That's the bustles.

This one's in the plant ICU (04/27/08)

Photographs cannot pick up the yellow well.  You can see the darkest veins of yellow.

 

I have only a leaf start of this left--if I lose that, my aunt has a plant and I can get another start.

 
S. magungensis

Species trailer.  It has a tangle of crowns and leaves that is very interesting.  This is a wild and lovely plant. 

 

I have only 2 little plant starts in the ICU of this.  It was also a bug victim.  I love it too much not to fight for it.

This is my oldest.  It's been with me since 1999.  It is usually pure white.  This shows a change, and I am unsure why.  Sometimes it blooms white all over, and sometimes like this on the one side of the plant.

I only have one start of this left.

To be added I have a bunch of starts that need to be added here...I went a little crazy and bought some from Beslisle's.
