Standard chimeras

These African violets are known for their 'pinwheel' striped blooms or, sometimes, uniquely variegated foliage.  Because of their genetic makeup, they cannot be propagated true by leaf cuttings, only by suckers or crowns--hence, the higher price.  Care is otherwise precisely the same as for other violets.

Descriptions of varieties are those of the hybridizer or of the AVSA registrar.  AVSA registration numbers follow description. Colors have not been altered and are truthful to how they appear when grown by us under our conditions and in our light.  Small differences in hue or intensity of colors may occur when grown in your environment or viewed in different lighting.  Proper care and environment is especially care to see the best color and contrast in pinwheel blooms!  Stress and/or high temperatures can adversely affect the coloring of blooms.

Some photos depict mature plants grown to bloom in 4" or larger pots--we cannot ship them this size!

Plants shipped in 2 1/2" pots.
