Lovely Contrast

The contrast between the huge, salmon pink blossoms and the dark green leaves is unusual and quite lovely. The leaves are described above as "medium", but those on mine are dark and a bit shiny. I live in south Texas and grow my plants mostly under lights; air conditioning notwithstanding, daytime room temps during the summer can climb into the low 80's. This violet tolerates these temps nicely; although I have noticed that the darker center is much more noticeable during the winter months. With or without the darker center, this is a beautiful and showy violet.

My favorite

I love my bored sun. Easy to grow a good strong plant, almost always blooming and the color is wonderful, a true coral/salmon not blue-pink. The blooms are very large it is quite a show stopper.

WOW!

Huge, lovely pink/peach blooms with a darker salmon center. Not mentioned in the description is a very thin edge of salmon that makes them so special. One of my new favorites!

Unusual Bloom

This violet has an unusual bloom. It is quite flat, like a disc (or a sun!), and very large. The darker shading in the center begins to appear when the flower has been open several days. Bored Sun has been a great bloomer for me.

Bored Sun

My starter plant already has very large, striking flowers that display themselves well. Unusual color and markings. I definitely recommend it.
