Lyon's Red Rocket

Average Rating 4.9 out of 5

Beautiful Violet

I have had this plant for several years. It has been a faithful bloomer, and the white rim shows up well with a little bit of extra light. Only one to two blooms per bloom stalk, but they are quite large.

Lyon's Red Rocket

Received my two Lyon's Red Rocket plants today. Very happy! They were well protected for shipping, they look healthy and happy. Looking forward to seeing them grow and bloom! Thank you!

A Keeper for Me

This is one of my favorite reds. The white edge shows off the bright red color beautifully. It's as true a red as any AV in my collection, and truer than some. Highly recommended.

Not a true red but lovely blooms

As a previous reviewer stated, the bloom color is not red but a burgundy color, despite the name. That said, how great was it that this sturdy violet arrived not only in great shape (thanks to Violet Barn's careful packing) but with two lovely open flowers?! Lovely and healthy looking plant.

Red Violet

I bought this red violet and waited for it to blossom. I am very excited about this plant however, it is not really red. It is a very nice dark burgundy color with white edges and is very pretty. I like this plant very much.
