Rob's June Bug

Average Rating 4.8 out of 5

the foliage is so pretty

The plant arrived in good shape with nicely variegated leaves. It's so perfect it almost look not real. Looking forward to seeing flowers.

Waiting for the blooms

I have this plant for a while now, the leaves are perfectly arranged and look pretty all by itself. But seems slow to bloom for me. Still waiting...

Lanchi Vo Mar 14 2023, 10:58 AM

Lovely tiny violet

I am in love with this plant. The leaves are very tiny and it looks perfect. No blooms yet. I cannot wait to see the little flowers..

Arianna Bottoni Jul 07 2022, 21:33 PM

Sweet little thing

I bought Rob’s June Bug a bit ago and she is giving me a run for the money. Such a tiny little thing and needing special attention to maintain. I recommend this miniature only if you are used to growing very small African violets.

Perfectly lovely!

My order arrived in absolutely perfect condition. Not one leaf was damaged. It has been a few weeks since it arrived. It is already producing new leaves. Can’t wait to see it bloom.

Kathryn Fisher Jun 07 2022, 13:52 PM

Tiny and Perfect

June Bug arrived with several flowers which are a delicate light pink color. She is a beautiful little plant and will fit in anywhere.

Susan Gregg May 02 2022, 15:25 PM

Tiny with beautiful leaves and growth habit

Well packaged as usual. The rosette of leaves is attractive in its own right - can't wait for it to bloom!

Albert Yeung May 02 2022, 09:41 AM

Perfect variegated foliage!

Love this tiny plant. The plant itself is very pretty with flat rosette of neatly variegated leaves. the bloom is an added bonus, but i actually like this one just for the great grow habit and the cute leaves!

Lanchi Vo Apr 01 2022, 03:09 AM

My Favorite!

I placed an order for four plants three weeks ago. They all arrived in perfect condition... not a leaf or speck of dirt out of place. I was pleasantly surprised at how much variegation this little guy has. It starting blooming about a week ago with the cutest little white flowers. It has quickly become my favorite little plant!

Karin Kister Jan 20 2022, 11:49 AM

Sweet and Precious

Rob’s June Bug is very tiny and compact. It arrived loaded with blooms already opening. I am looking forward to growing this miniature. Get this one if you like growing the littles. June Bug is a keeper.

Linda Tormey Dec 01 2021, 17:43 PM

So cute!

This is my first miniature and I can’t get over how cute and healthy it looks! Fingers crossed it stays that way.

Annissa Huhn Nov 14 2021, 21:43 PM

Very tiny

This one stands out among my other mini violets. It's very small - almost comically so - and very cute.

Timothy Youngblood Oct 02 2021, 20:35 PM

Tiny Classic

Received this one as a gift. Presents itself as tiny with loads of classic blooms. Great in terrerium. Does tend to lose variegation.

Helen Grogan Sep 30 2021, 12:35 PM

Love this one Rob’s June Bug

So adorable! Blooms all the time, a must in my collection

VERA CARLSON Sep 04 2021, 16:14 PM

Tiny and Tidy

This itty bitty plant looks fabulous in my micro violet pots and is a neat grower. It’s one of the only violets I want two of.

Anonymous Sep 01 2021, 22:14 PM

Vigorous Plant

I have grown the Junebug in terraria, on a south facing window, and on a shelf under florescent lights, and it has performed well everywhere. Lovely flowers! A warning: Under light that is too bright, the variagation fades and the leaves turn pale.

Mark Krull Aug 02 2021, 15:16 PM

Tiny and Adorable

I just received this adorable tiny starter plant and I think I'm hooked! It's perfectly shaped with lovely variegated leaves, and only the size of a half dollar. I can't wait to see it blossom.

Anonymous May 29 2021, 06:20 AM

Tiny

Not the biggest fan of this plant, it always stayed around the size of a half dollar, which made it very difficult to care for... eventually left my collection.

Tim Pinkelman Feb 23 2021, 00:41 AM

So Cute!

I bought this plant several years ago and loved it! Then I had twins and my plants suffered. I just ordered it again and I'm looking forward to having her back in my life again!

Anonymous Jan 17 2021, 15:58 PM

Father's Nick name

This is a lovely little plant, it reminds me of my father who recently,past, it's full of life, vibrant and motivated to make people smile. Highly recommended, with its dark green leaves and pristine flowers.

Rob’s June Bug

I bought this a while ago but it is a fantastic bloomer and I love the contrast between the flowers and the leaves! Cute little plant!

Jan Tomalis Oct 17 2020, 11:45 AM

Cute little plant

This little mini is soo cute. She produces so many little white flowers & they are just darling!

Phyllis Van Dyke Jun 14 2020, 22:59 PM

Lovely plant

Arrived very well packaged and in wonderful shape. Was a bit concerned given the nature of these plants, but they know how to ship. The violet itself was: healthy. No blooms, but they will come. Very happy with my purchase!

Katherine Foster May 05 2020, 19:18 PM

arrived with buds

all buds blasted, however, the leaves are beautiful. Growing well. no new flowers yet.

julia Bartosh Mar 04 2020, 10:08 AM

Perfect little jewel

Even though it was in a box for a full 7 days, when unwrapped it was perfect, had buds & 1 bloom. Fell in love with this one imeditaly.

Tammy Maddox Sep 20 2019, 06:51 AM

Adorable plant. Unbeatable symmetry!

I don't have any blossoms yet but the symmetry of the foliage is amazing. Just for that alone I highly recommend it. It is an adorable plant even without it's blossoms.

Kevin J Lent Sep 03 2019, 16:24 PM

Wonderfully small

True to description very small 2inch across plant that explodes with white flowers, highly recommend

Matthew Johnson Aug 17 2019, 14:03 PM

Perfect!

We had been looking for a mini to add to our violet collection and this one is perfect! Excited to find this classic looking plant.

Arica Walker Jul 08 2019, 09:33 AM

June bug

Darling tiny plant!!

melissa barton-wood Jul 04 2019, 14:47 PM

Rob's June Bug

This little gem of a plant is so adorable it looks artificial. It nearly grows itself in a perfect little rosette, with a proportionate boquet of blooms above the foliage. If you like the littles, this one is a must have!

margo bygrave Apr 15 2019, 13:47 PM

VERY CUTE

June Bug arrived in Miami in mid July 2018. Growing in a bathroom at 75oF (air conditioning) and 12 hours of intense indirect light. Arrived with a flower shoot. The first flower is already open and more are coming on the same shoot. Leaves are growing. Highly recommended for similar conditions.

Tony Castineiras Jul 31 2018, 18:12 PM

Beautiful tiny plant

Arrived with buds, now blooming. Beautiful tiny flowers. I'm hooked on miniatures! Excellent packing and quick shipping, as always with Violet Barn.

Anne Jul 14 2018, 13:40 PM

Rob's June Bug

I received a plant of Rob's June Bug in January of this year. She arrived in perfect condition, despite traveling from New York to Ohio in the dead of winter. This little "cute as a bug" violet is so perfect that it actually looks like an artificial violet. Delicate shell pink blooms rise above perfectly symmetrical, pointed variegated foliage. I just love her...you will, too.

margo bygrave Jul 07 2018, 00:45 AM

Love this little plant!

I love this little violet! The foliage is tiny and perfectly symmetrical. I just glanced underneath the leaves and found and amazing quantity of buds forming!

Corey Thompson May 16 2018, 18:58 PM

Lovely plant

Very pleased with this beauty! Love all my purchases from the violet barn. Always healthy and exquisite!

Michael Baker May 05 2018, 17:33 PM

Thank you

I received all my AV from VB in great condition. Thank you VB. Now, I am waiting for my plants to grow and have a lot of flowers.

Anonymous May 05 2018, 00:16 AM

So Cute.

A very nice, well packaged plant. The variegated leaves are cute. So tiny precious mini. This is a must have!

Anonymous Aug 02 2017, 02:26 AM

So Tiny!

I bought this tiny plant a number of years ago. It doesn't bloom often for me but the variegated leaves are lovely on their own.

Terry Stevens Apr 25 2017, 16:17 PM

Sweet

Arrived safely with many beautiful white flowers. The variegated leaves are stunning on their own. It's simply beautiful. I'm so pleased. Thank you.

Ruth Silva Mar 25 2017, 20:30 PM

Cutest little thing!

I received this plant with the seller's pick deal. I love this little guy! I honestly wouldn't considered this plant because I prefer more flashy flowers, but I'm glad I received this one. It's my husband's favorite because of its itsy bitsy size. I plan on purchasing more micromini violets.

Dustie Dipietro Dec 02 2016, 21:33 PM

Precious!

This violet is absolutely the cutest plant ever! The leaves are beautifully striking, the blooms are numerous, and it is so tiny!! This one may be my new favorite...

Cari Cooper May 29 2016, 09:56 AM

My Son Favorite :)

I ordered 10 plants in mid March seller's choice. My boy loves this cutie, plus very easy to grow. It is one of my son favorite mini!!!

K Tan Apr 28 2016, 23:54 PM

Nice plant

A very nice, well packaged plant. I am impressed!

Anonymous Oct 19 2015, 17:35 PM

Exquisite little plant

Never ceases to amaze me how something so tiny can be so beautiful yet so tough. Have been under the weather quite frequently this year and this little plant has done wonderfully although I have not paid it as much attention.

Alba Sequeira Oct 11 2015, 14:14 PM

Simply Gorgeous

This sweet little plant is simply gorgeous. Arrived already bloomed. Would definitely recommend.

Lise Goss Sep 22 2015, 12:04 PM

The most precious little thing

I purchased this tiny beauty less than a week ago and I'm already showing her pictures to my friends. It arrived packaged as if I was receiving some China, there were so many layers or bubble wrap, heat protection, stickers warning to handle with care, etc., that I almost thought I ordered some live animal, not a plant. Well, the plant is also very much alive, but the packaging was so impressive, I've never seen anything like it before. I thought to myself that packaging it must had cost more time and money than the plant alone. But Violet Barn shows how much they care and how much they are passionate about the quality of their flowers, shipment and clearly, their reputation. I am an on & off buyer for years now, but this was my first purchase of microminiatures. Never before have I seen something so tiny, delicate, yet so beautiful. I bought two microminiatures and a sinningia at once, and it's almost like these three are competing against each other. Incredible that something so little can be such a charmer. I even took a picture of them next to an apple and the apple is much bigger than one of these plants. I am so impressed that I am already shopping for a couple of more. I hope Rob soon offers even a greater selection, because these guys can be kept just anywhere where you have some space and it is not in the direct sunlight. Thank you for such special beauties, you have an admirer for life.

Sweet Beauty

Received this precious av yesterday. Arrived in great shape. Leaves are uniform and compact. The bonus was receiving her in bloom. Satisfaction is always

Irene Fukuji Jul 24 2015, 13:09 PM

Sweet tiny mini

Beautiful white with pink hue, just as pictured! Love the sweet tiny size and I am hopeful that it will do well and grown abundant flowers down the road.

Lori MacDonald Mar 17 2015, 10:59 AM

Cathy

This is a pretty heavy bloomer.....I put mine in a little white pot and it really stands out

Cathy Sowell Jan 08 2015, 13:21 PM

New to mini violet

I got this one couple weeks ago. Bloom. So precious. Ready to add mini violet to my collection.

Hope Nguyen Oct 24 2014, 14:31 PM

So cute

This came with buds and one was opened already very beautiful plant.

Tracy Y Sep 04 2014, 19:24 PM

My absolute favorite!

I cannot get enough of these lovely little June Bugs! I have them all over the house to admire. They maintain the most beautiful symmetrical foliage, so are lovely even when not in bloom, but their blooms are spectacular, too. Ordering a couple more today to give as gifts, I just love this variety so much.

Kate Sawyer Aug 21 2014, 19:52 PM

Perfect Violet!

This is such a beautiful plant. The leaves grow in a perfect rosette with gorgeous white edging on the leaves. The flowers are large and abundant. This is a must have!

Heather Larsen Nov 03 2013, 18:42 PM

cute leaves!

My roommate got this violet and it is so pretty and cute! it came in already flowering and the leaves are so symmetrical and variegated at the edges. very nice.

Amy Huo Sep 09 2013, 03:32 AM

Amazing

This amazing little mini is the most symmetrical violet I have ever seen with my own eyes! Its so tiny and cute I don't even care if it blooms, I heart it!

Amie M May 31 2013, 19:07 PM

Best Mini in Show

This adorable mico mini grew into a perfect rosette with large white blooms. It took Best Mini in show at Thousand Oaks African Violet Society's show in April 2011.

Gay Wilson Feb 03 2013, 18:34 PM

Really Sweet

So petite..took awhile to flower but coming around..Foliage perfect!!!

Elena Colandrea Jan 27 2013, 19:17 PM

Rob's June Bug

I ordered 3 miniature violets, all different, and they arrived looking so healthy and already blooming. They are lovely little violets and I'm so pleased with them. I have standard size, but the miniatures just tickle my fancy. I'll be ordering more from Violet Barn in the future.

Karen York Oct 15 2012, 09:23 AM

rob's june bug

First time ordering here. This little guy had 1 flower in bloom when it arrived and its been less than 2 weeks and I have another starting to bloom. Very excited about having these miniatures.

Michelle James Jul 25 2012, 22:12 PM

Little Cutie!

I love this little one! Very symmetrical growth pattern and easy bloomer. The dainty variegated leaves are too cute! I highly recommend adding June Bug to your collection :)

Sarah B Jul 13 2012, 06:07 AM

No blooms in 2 years :(

I bought this and several other violets two years ago for Mother's day presents. I have a cascading violet, and a standard violet from you guys that bloom like crazy, but not this little guy.

Tiffany Apr 01 2012, 16:56 PM

Beautiful tiny green and cream leaves, fat white flowers. A treat!!

jlweissman Mar 15 2012, 13:22 PM

perfect little plant

Constant bloomer, I love this one so much that I am ordering a second.

Peggy Eckert Mar 02 2012, 06:16 AM

Much coveted little darling

I love that when I received this, it was perfect (and already in bloom). It's an absolute little darling! I had ordered a few miniature African violets for my terrariums and left this one at work to brighten up my cubicle. Super easy to care for and much coveted by my co-worker. So on her last day, I surrendered my Robs June Bug to her. It made her very happy and now I'm placing another order for more!

Nancy McLellan Feb 01 2012, 17:14 PM

It's Adorable!!

Received and repotted this violet three days ago. It is in bloom and truly it is as cute as a bug. Teeny Tiny! It is in a 2 inch terra cotta pot in the window by my desk and brings me enjoyment every day.

Carol Stevenson Oct 23 2011, 16:26 PM

Perfect

I absolutely love this little violet. It is my favorite.

JB Gaubert Jul 17 2011, 16:33 PM

June Bug

This plant has beautiful variegated leaves that make it my favorite in my collection even when it's not in bloom.

K Henry Jun 26 2011, 20:32 PM

Rob's June Bug

Just love this little plant. It has been blooming ever since I received it with the prettiest little flowers. Thank You!

Elaine Billy Jun 24 2011, 10:45 AM

Beautiful

I love this mini. It's easy to care for and requires very little grooming to keep it ready to show.

LeeAnne Roberts Jun 22 2011, 10:26 AM

DOLLY DELGADO

THE SECOND ONE I RECEIVED COMES WITH BLOOMS AND BUTTONS READY TO BLOOM. EXTREME PRECIOUS.
