One year membership includes 6 issues of AV Magazine (that's our plant shown on the cover). We highly recommend joining for those who are most interested in growing violets well. A free plant (of seller's choice) included with your plant order (we cannot add free plant to a order of supplies) when joining through this site. Digital (or the magazine) memberships can also be ordered directly from the AVSA site at avsa.org
Each issue contains a wealth of information for both the novice and experienced exhibitor. Regular columns include "For Beginners", "Question Box", "In Search of New Violets (on hybridizing), "Small Talk" (on miniatures), and "A Family Portrait" (related gesneriads), among others. In addition, each issue contains plenty of photos of the latest varieties and society information. For those wishing to join directly through the AVSA office, you may visit their website at www.avsa.org (Canadian addresses $60, other international $70).
