Work of art!
It’s nearly impossible to sing this plants praises enough. As a novice grower in my very first show, my Picasso plant took many ribbons, including best of show, much to my delight and surprise! With more limited space, I now grow it in a window, and it still blooms and shapes beautifully. The bloom color, foliage and symmetry are all very pleasing, and if you ever want to show I would highly recommend it! Enjoy!
Picasso is a Work of Art
Beautiful flowers and healthy plant
Looking forward to seeing Picasso's flowers
Received this very healthy and well shaped plant. It has grown in the short amount of time I've had it. I'm looking forward to seeing the blooms sprout. Always pleased with all violets from VB.
Picasso’s show qualities
I have just received mine in my last order and it a very healthy beautiful little plant.I can’t wait for it to bloom. I was so happy to see that violet barn carried some, just may order another one.
Big, well-shaped plant
The description for "Picasso" is true... it makes a big, shapely show plant, with very pretty flowers. The variegated foliage is very appealing, too. A fun plant to grow!
Gorgeous!
I love the foliage on this AV, so prettty! Mine hasn't flowered yet but it's growing wonderfully. Looking forward to the blooms!
Awesome!!!
Few days ago i received my order of 15 AV including Picasso. Packaging was incredible as usual. Plants are little smaller then the ones I received before but all look healthy. There are 2 leaves broken on one of the violets which is fine - they will grow back. Thank you guys for a great work you are doing!!!
Picasso
This is a gorgeous variety to grow for show. I highly recommend it to anyone growing for show.
Picasso
Received yesterday my Picasso. 5 stars as to the health, size, and perfect condition it arrived in. Cannot wait to see those pretty flowers when it blooms.
needed fertilizer
Just a week ago I received this one and four others in my first VB order. The plants were small but in all five cases the leaves were an odd dark purplish olive green color. At first I wondered if all five varieties had purplish leaves. As I usually do I put them in my own wicking mix then waited before watering them. The purplish color got worse and in some the leaves started curling downward along the edges. I decided that this may be due to a phosphorus deficiency. Yesterday I started all five on an AV high phos fertilizer and in less than 24 hours all five have started showing green along the main vein, at the base of the leaves, and young small leaves have changed to green. The contrast in such a short time is stunning. There may be a reason why these young plants are being starved for nutrition. I do not know why. I hope to see some growth in them quickly now that they are being fed.
Blue Ribbon
I am thrilled with this plant. I saw in the AVSA magazine that it frequently received blue ribbons so I ordered one last April. I won a blue ribbon last month in Vermont with this plant. In my warm loft under lights, there is even more variegation including pink and I love the two tone (blue/white) flowers.
Outstanding Variety
I ordered a Picasso in my first order from Violet Barn 9 months ago. Within 4-6 weeks, it was in full bloom, and has constantly remained in full bloom since that time. The foliage is beautiful, and it looks exactly like the one on the website,except even slightly more bloom. I can't recommend it highly enough.
