Irish Flirt

Average Rating 4.8 out of 5

Great Bloomer

I just love this plant. It is such a good bloomer. It is also easy to start from a leaf. I have enjoyed this plant ever since I bought it from Violet Barn.

Irish Flirt

Cutest little plant w it’s beautiful light green flowers. You have to see this yourself to appreciate its uniqueness. Came shipped in full bloom, very nice.

Cynthia Glenn Nov 13 2022, 08:25 AM

Very cute!!!

I was not prepared for how absolutely adorable this violet is. The leaves are so delicately ruffled and small!

Kyla Searcy Oct 17 2022, 01:53 AM

A must-have

This little beauty is a must have for anybody who enjoys the semi-minis. It blooms profusely and easy to grow. Don't pass this one up. The plant I received is small but healthy and is even blooming!

Unique, Ruffled Green Irish Flirt!!

I love this little plant as well as a second plant my daughter sent me for Mother's Day! They came in excellent condition, and I am now placing my first order with you - very exciting!

Marilyn Spencer May 14 2022, 17:11 PM

Newbie/ Recommended by AV loving Friend!

I am new to African Violets and am jumping into this as a hopeful hobbyist! A friend of mine suggested this violet to me as it was and is a favorite amongst many of her friends. The reviews here do not seem to tell any different. I am super excited to place this order and find out!

Devae Burgess Jun 03 2021, 12:48 PM

Great little plant

I've had this for a year and it is now blooming non stop-I love it

REGINA HENDERSON Apr 15 2021, 13:15 PM

More beautiful in person

Out of all the African violets have purchased a date this is honestly my favorite. It’s flowers exactly like in the picture. When it’s done flowering the plant is exquisite with its beautiful leaves.

Very cute plants, nice and healthy, excellent packaging for shipping. Thank you so much!

Pretty Plant

I received this violet a few weeks ago. The plant is small but appears happy. The leaves are a curly light green, very pretty. Have not had any flowers yet but I can't wait to see the frilly flowers with a touch of green. I thought it was an unusual looking flower and is one of the reasons I purchased it. Packaging was excellent as always.

Dolores Mosher Aug 23 2020, 16:07 PM

A happy violet

I love this plant the leaves and the color-it seems to grow great no matter where I place her.

REGINA HENDERSON Jul 30 2020, 14:57 PM

Great plant!

Came packaged perfectly! Good size, very healthy. Such a cute plant! Can’t wait to see it bloom!

Jennifer Keough Jun 23 2020, 01:34 AM

Adorable

Arrived in perfect condition. In just 2 weeks it is shooting up buds. Can't wait to see them open. Very symmetrical.

Cynthia Dailey Jun 11 2020, 23:06 PM

Cute

This is a very cute symmetrical violet. It has beautiful scalloped leaves. I love green flowers!

Phyllis Van Dyke Jun 07 2020, 01:31 AM

A treasure!

A terrific violet, one of my all-time favorites.

Cheryl Georges May 25 2020, 13:17 PM

A wonderful green violet.

Irish Flirt has been easy for me to grow and I seem to have a black thumb for violets. I’d buy it again if something happens to my plant.

Holly Tunning Canfield Apr 11 2020, 19:55 PM

Better than the picture

Forgot to rate 5 stars!!!

Linda Zuchowski Mar 19 2020, 15:56 PM

Good Bloomer

Cute little plant that is constantly blooming. Its frilly blossoms are a nice green and white and fairly plentiful. I've found that the buds show some variation as well, with some opening completely and others less so.

Brittany S. Oct 19 2019, 02:22 AM

Big bloomer

I grew this plan in the past and now am starting again. I can't wait to add this one back into my collection.

Cathi Cobb Jun 10 2019, 12:02 PM

Irish Flirt

What can I say? I'm a sucker for the green ones! All the plants came well packaged and healthy. (Bet Violet Barn staff ROCK at wrapping Christmas gifts!) If you love green blooms, Irish Flirt is for you!

Lisa Lynn Beam May 22 2019, 15:53 PM

Love this violet

I have always loved the green color blooms and this one is no exception-it is always has buds coming on .

REGINA HENDERSON May 13 2019, 17:35 PM

heavy bloomer

There are times it has more flowers than leaves

REGINA HENDERSON Apr 29 2019, 18:31 PM

Happy customer

I bought 10 mini violets . Rob's Boondoggie has been in bloom for the last two weeks. Rob's Shadow Magic just started blooming two days ago. Rob's Cherry Soda has buds ready to bloom in a few days. I was amazed at the care given these plants preparing them for shipment! They were in perfect shape when they arrived. Never have I received a shipment of plants in such great shape!!

Clyde Ray/ Victor Moore Oct 06 2018, 15:45 PM

Lovely

Love this little semi mini! Beautiful little double green blooms. Was blooming when it got here and still blooming with long lasting flowers. The wavy foilage is an extra bonus.

Rachel Spainhour Mar 27 2018, 08:24 AM

Instead of Irish Flirt I think I got Sassy Sister

I got two Irish Flirts because I love this plant. Unfortunately they both are blooming totally pink flowers with no green. From what I can read, it appears these are the sport of Irish Flirt that are pink. I'm really disappointed because I wanted a true Irish Flirt with the green blooms.

Walter Heckman Jan 06 2018, 13:06 PM

Pink!

Mine arrived with flower buds. They opened to frilly white and green blooms. A few have a slight pink blush. It's small and checks all the boxes! Love it!

Iris Johnson Nov 02 2017, 12:50 PM

Fantastic Violet

Heavy bloomer with gorgeous flowers that change the petal color from light green to white as the flowers open up.

Anonymous Apr 11 2017, 14:21 PM

Fabulous Violet

This is a stunning miniature which blooms and blooms and blooms. Beautiful flowers, lovely leaves. You will enjoy this for many years to come! Could not be happier with the quality of plants I received from Violet Barn.

Julie Webber Feb 13 2017, 12:18 PM

Only one to thrive through the move

I have kept AV's for years, starting with the store bought, graduating to shows. Then kids came along, and they suffered some neglect. Then what I like to refer to as the Winter of the Move . . . in which I lost most of my poor plants. But not this one . . . not only did it not die, not suffer, but it thrived! It didn't mind the temperature switches, the light changes, humidity change, nothing, just kept going strong! Definitely will keep this one on my must have list, it's a keeper!

Carissa N Hensley Aug 29 2016, 15:29 PM

A wonderful plant

I bought the Irish Flirt a few years ago. It was rather quiet for its first few months with me, but then it started to bloom and has constantly bloomed since. The blooms last a long time. The leaves are fun, all ruffly and a bit stiff. It never grows suckers (a plague on one or two of my other plants). Easy to care for. A joy.

Linda Isaacs Jun 26 2016, 19:49 PM

So cute!

My blooms are mostly white, but it's a pretty hardy little thing and blooms quite a bit!

Tiffany L May 16 2016, 12:48 PM

Gorgeous

This is a beautiful plant with lots of lightish green blossoms.

Cathy Sowell Dec 11 2015, 16:26 PM

Irish Flirt

Arrived in beautiful shape and had 3 blooms already on. I am very happy with the plants I received. I have just ordered three more miniature violets.

Anonymous Dec 02 2015, 15:17 PM

Irish Flirt

The plant arrived safe and sound. Very healthy root system and foliage. The greenest of greens foliage with interesting curled edges. My new favorite! Highly recommended!

Pamela Rogers Nov 28 2015, 14:57 PM

Easy Grower

Very easy to grow, blooms contantly!!

Michael Weil Nov 17 2015, 09:46 AM

Easy to grow and bloom!

It is mini size plant that is good for my east side windowsill. It had bloomed a few times already since I bought it less than a year.

Anonymous Nov 07 2015, 15:49 PM

Long time favorite

I first bought Irish Flirt a few years ago. It was one of the first violets I ever had (and didn't kill). Mine has never had as many blooms as the photo above, but I love the unique green petals. It blooms almost constantly. Love it!

Katherine Steighler Oct 29 2015, 18:15 PM

Flirty for Sure

I first bought Irish Flirt years ago and still am in love with this adorable little plant.

Anonymous Oct 12 2015, 23:46 PM

Irish Flirt is beautiful!

I love Irish Flirt, I've had it before, but went on vacation and it died. So I re-ordered it. It came full of blossoms. After that, I haven't had much luck with it flowering again. I think it doesn't like the spot it's in. I think it might prefer artificial light to natural light.

Cecilia Stoute Jul 20 2015, 10:49 AM

Constant bloomer

Started this plant over 10 years ago when purchased from leaves. Has grown beautifully in a large, lidded brandy sniffer. The terrarium has three of these that maintain perfect shape year after year. One of the three has stayed in constant bloom over the years. I have moved them from sun to artificial light and only the color (more green in strong natural light) has changed not amount of blooms. I have never seen another constant bloomer like this one.

Patrick Morgan Jun 21 2015, 05:20 AM

Love, love, love!

Love this plant! Beautiful and easy to grow!

Anonymous Jun 18 2015, 14:51 PM

Great little plant

This is one of the few that I keep even though the symmetry on the leaves can be a challenge. Once it starts blooming, it just doesn't matter! The head of blooms is just so thick and full that you can barely even see the leaves. The blooms just last forever to boot!

Merna Addison Jun 13 2015, 01:19 AM

Great plant!

I got this plant this past fall and right now it is just loaded with flowers. Not nearly as green as the photo - in fact my blooms are mainly white with just a hint of green but it's warm right now. LOVE the leaves and the carnation like flowers.

Paul Gerthoffer May 16 2015, 13:54 PM

Irish Flirt

This arrived today and my mom thought it was so cute. It has 2 flower stems with 2 buds that are about to bloom, I cant wait for it to open up so she can tell me about it. The buds are an apple green color.

Julee Buckman May 14 2015, 16:16 PM

always a heavy bloomer

I really like the compact growth of this one.blooms heavy and often.

Marigene Cole May 03 2015, 10:28 AM

Love them all

I have this plant and love it although it's hard to pick which one is my favorite since I have 12+ the all have bloomed and couldn't be happier I am buying several more.

Anonymous May 03 2015, 09:02 AM

prolific bloomer

I received this plant last October and I don't think it has stopped blooming. My blooms are not as green as in the picture; they are more white with a touch of green. But they are still very pretty and unusual. It also seems to be pretty hardy.

Margaret siirila May 02 2015, 18:55 PM

I love Irish flirt

This is such a cutie, great semi mini and heavy bloomer. Love those green blooms!

Silvia Hartley Apr 30 2015, 22:30 PM

Marigene Cole Jan 15 2015, 20:25 PM

Blooms constantly!

This was one of our first plants from VB this spring and our first miniature. It had buds on when it arrived in March and has been blooming non-stop since! Might not be a big plant but it is certainly good.

Michael Starmack Sep 15 2014, 17:46 PM

Just not for me

this bloom on this violet look like the bloom in the bottom photo, nothing like the top photo, it is NOT that full of blooms. disappointed

Sandy Porter Jun 02 2014, 09:52 AM

My favorite african violet

This plant is so easy to grow and always is in bloom. The blooms just last forever. It also has good shape and it just seems very hardy. Very care free african violet.

Cristy Grover May 01 2014, 21:39 PM

Excellent Choice

This was one of my first plants ordered last year and still one of my favorites. This lil beauty displays an awesome show with beautiful blooms and leaves that make this plant a show stopper. Ordering two more as gifts. Keep up the great work, I 'll be back for more.

Holly Walp Apr 30 2014, 19:42 PM

A Must-Have!

Truly a terrific plant. Lots of charming green and white flowers; very easy to grow. Cheryl Georges

Cheryl Georges Apr 26 2014, 17:48 PM

Irish Flirt is a Beauty

I recently received my very first order from Violet Barn. Irish Flirt was among them and was covered with blooms and is still blooming. It's a thrill to receive plants in bloom and packaged so very beautifully. Thank you Rob for the good service. I am going to order a couple of standard violets now. I don't have much room here at Assisted Living to display my violets but am going to pack in just as many as I can.

Dolores Dixon Mar 31 2014, 12:36 PM

Beautiful little plant

When I received this plant in the mail it was covered in beautiful green blossoms that lasted a long time. Very healthy and beautiful little bloomer.

Mary Hoyt Dec 15 2013, 02:46 AM

Great plant!

My all time favorite semi-mini. Love the leaves, color of the flowers and the shape of the plant. A must have for any violet lover.

Marina Nov 18 2013, 00:17 AM

Stunning

Received this plant a couple of days ago and it was in full, glorious bloom. The blooms are even frillier than they appear in the picture. The plant was very carefully packed and the shape of the plant was perfection.

Tamra Hollar Sep 08 2013, 23:49 PM

True to the description

I just received this flower today and it was in full bloom! Its stunning! I love it!

Danielle Drought Sep 05 2013, 23:53 PM

Irish Flirt

I have had wonderful luck with this cute little plant. It blooms well and people love it!

Gina Lorraine Baggett Jul 31 2013, 21:09 PM

The Best Bloomer

My plant was blooming when in arrived, and after a few weeks it stopped. I potted it in a small self-watering pot and it TOOK OFF! It has grown like crazy and bloomed again and HAS NEVER QUIT BLOOMING!....going on close to six months...beautiful curved leaves and huge balls of white-ish green blossoms. I have propagated three so far. It is a very hardy plant. This is a variety I intend to keep around.

Lyle Meador Jun 09 2013, 19:25 PM

Irish Flirt

I ordered this beautiful violet "Irish Flirt" 2 1/2 years ago, these lovely green doubles are so striking and it just keeps blooming, what a lovely addition to my sunroom.

Karen L. Poteat May 31 2013, 11:54 AM

Great choice

I am very happy with the a Violet Barn and theis adorable violet. It has been easy to keep in bloom and a great addition to my violet collection.

Jenn Mar 13 2013, 15:35 PM

sweet

Newer flowers are a very pale pink with a greenish edge. Like these even more than the initial geen blooms!

barb Feb 23 2013, 15:04 PM

You will adore this Little Wonder!

Very beautiful green, rose type violet. If love roses, the color green, and African violets, then this is definitely the type of violet you want to buy!

Dakota Saunders Nov 15 2012, 10:12 AM

Irish Flirt

It's a little hard to see in the picture, but the leaves are extremely wavy, with a scalloped edge and a fondness for curling in enchantingly weird ways. I can't wait for it to bloom so I can see its green flowers!

Emily Kozak Nov 09 2012, 16:27 PM

Irish Flirt

Ordered From the Violet Barn and when it came in the mail it was blooming. Two months later it is still blooming. For a newbie to violets that is wonderful!! It is one that I will order for Christmas gifts as it is a sure winner.

S Jarnot Nov 08 2012, 22:42 PM

Green with Envy

A must have! It's a beautiful unique little plant with glossy wavy foilage and beautiful green flowers.

Monica Jacob Apr 26 2012, 11:29 AM

Irish Flirt

Lovely little plant. All my friends comment on it and are suprised to see such a little violet with pale green blossums. This was my first miniture, Love it.

T Armstrong Mar 29 2012, 15:48 PM

Outstanding Novelty!

I received my first Irish Flirt as a leaf cutting from a friend in college. It put out its first bloom before I even cut it free from the mother leaf! It is an outstanding novelty for those who like something unusual and unique. Quite the little performer, it blooms constantly and the flowers last for a very long time. I'm ordering one for one of my Irish friends right now as a Saint Patty's Day gift! I can't wait to see the look on her face! It's become a tremendously popular variety and for good reason. It's a fun novelty that performs like a true champion. The bright green blooms are a breathe of fresh air that would liven up even the most seasoned African Violet enthusiast's collection. You will definitely love this one, especially for good 'ole St. Patty's Day!

Vincent Gomez Feb 27 2012, 22:17 PM

Irish Flirt

The best green violet I have ever had! You won't be disappointed with this one!

Debbie Jan 15 2012, 02:44 AM

WONDERFULLY IRISH

Arrived in bloom! So surprised, just like in the photo! Being of Irish decent, I just had to have this one, and I was not disappointed!

VICKI YOUNG May 08 2011, 01:21 AM

This would have to be the most special kind of all! The green color is so fresh and pure.

Hailee Chan Apr 13 2011, 21:24 PM

very unique

I will admit I was very reserved about this violet, My wife and I took a road trip to the violet Barn and when I seen this violet up close and in person I had to get it. The color on this violet is very vibrent and is realy a most have in your collection.
