Didn't Thrive
Unfortunately, this guy only lasted for a little over a month. It arrived a little limp and planted a little lower in the pot than the others, but still impeccably packaged. I figured with a little TLC it would perk up. I let it acclimate for about a month, but was getting worried when it didn't perk up. I replanted it in a wicking pot with wicking soil to see if it was a little thirstier than I thought. I also planted it so that it was above the level of soil at the edge of the pot. After a couple weeks of this, it's turned brown and wilted completely. This is the only little guy who hasn't thrived under my care, and I'm glad I bought Jolly Fireball at the same time because he is super happy! It's possible that because Love Bite's leaves were so light with variegation it wasnt getting as much light as it needed as opposed to the other non variegated violets. I might try ordering again in the future due the the rave reviews, but my first experience was not a good one.
Flowers are a bonus
I highly recommend this, if only for the variegation. In the cooler temperatures of winter, my plant gets a beautiful bright yellow center of leaves in the crown that turn orange and then green as it grows out. a burst of bright color that doesn't need flowers to show off. The flowers are just an added bonus to this plant. If you like miniatures with color, this one is for you.
Superior Plant
This is one of my favorite plants! I love everything about it!
Rob's Love Bite
This is a small violet but is very lovely. I can not wait for it to bloom, however the foliage is very healthy and the variegation is pretty. I would order this one again.
Leaves the color of blush
I actually received this by accident but I love it. It's not blooming yet but it has predominantly pink, shimmering leaves. It really looks a lot like blush in color and texture. This violet and every other one I ordered has started at least two baby leaves in a week, so they seem to be doing well. I'm hooked.
