The daughter and granddaughter



Raised from a cut leaf - the 2nd generation -  with the same appearance as the mother plant.

Raised from a cut leaf obtained from the 2nd generation - the color shade between them are so differently.  It happens often on the hybrid African violets because of their unstable gene.

The Flame violet is water raised.  But they are in good health and bear beautiful flowers.  Since their stems extended so long and crawling around, I use some bamboo sticks to support them standing straight up.
