African Violets
My mother has a green thumb, but she's has an extra special gift with African Violets. I love the way she has them displayed in her picture window. Dad installed some glass shelves and the violets are in special ceramic planters made for African Violets. They always look lovely. She's starting a few slips in water for me. I haven't had much luck in the past and gave her my African Violets to rescue from an early death. I'm eager to give it another try. If you have any special African Violet tips that might help me, please leave your tips in the comments.
