Love this variety!
I have had the Starry Night Blue I ordered from Violet Barn for 4 months now. Once I repotted it it just took off with minor attention needed. I just happened to notice a week ago there were a few buds partially open and just a couple of days ago one of them was fully open. The color and shape is true to the picture. I was not disappointed at all!
Gorgeous
Of the five violets I received this one lost 2 leaves in shipping and I easily broke off another, oops. That being said 2.5 months later all violets are blooming and this is my favorite next to the Black Pearl Sport (Grey Ocean). When SNB starts to open the petals seem almost black with the white edge and in a few days it grows bigger and the deep gorgeous blue purple with ruffles and zigzags of white edging are magnificent. This photo is accurate enuf, but doesn't capture the depth of this flower. The leaves on mine do seem more easily to be damaged by water or looking at them funny, but I'd totally buy this one again if mine keeled over. The suckering isn't so bad on this one as my others, but I read AV's sucker when they are stressed...not sure on how to prevent that.
BEAUTIFUL
Absolutely love this plant. Received it as a gift from my brother and just love how beautiful and healthy it is!!
First order
I received my first order and packing was perfect. Now I wait for it to bloom.
Can’t Wait
I have ordered this and can’t wait to get it. Packing is always something you can count on.
Starry Night Blue
Beautiful violet. It arrived in perfect shape and with some blossoms already to bloom! As usual, Violet Barn does such a great good of packing and shipping.
Love it!
I've had this plant for years now and it is beautiful! Great color and blooms!
Love!!
This is a great website and the violets are always stunning and arrive safely
Amazingly awesome plant!
Got this plant less than a year ago and it has grown by leaps and bounds. I am getting my first blooms and it is a huge show off. Huge blooms that have measured almost 2 inches across and the foliage is almost the size of my palm. The edges of the flowers seem to almost glow against the deep purple. I am in love with it.
Big, Bold and Beautiful!
Starry Night Blue has gorgeous flowers, every bit as pretty as the picture. The dark blue edging is the icing on the cake. It is a big, bold plant that does not disappoint. What a beauty!
Gorgeous flowers
I received this in June 2018 and it took it a couple of months to settle in, but now has multiple big, stunning deep purple, white edged blooms. It could not be more beautiful. I have it in an east window, so far it likes the direct light.
No Luck
I didn't have much luck with SNB. It lived and bloomed for several years, but never looked very happy. The flowers would rarely open right (think fungus) and the plant frequently had powdery mildew. This one preferred lower light, I put it on the end of the shelf close to 'Blue Eyed Russia'. It seems like a good hybrid, just didn't like my growing conditions.
Beautiful plant
Starry night blue is a favorite of mine, love the purple with the crisp white ruffled edge. Just awesome!!
Absolutely gorgeous
This is one of my favorites. A must have if you love African violets. The color is gorgeous and the blooms are huge !
Beautiful
The flowers on this plant are truly beautiful, and the plant flowers often. One of my favorites.
Obvious Mix-up
This was one of four that I received on my first order last year. It was the last to bloom but it sure packed a punch with the stunning plum color & frilly crisp white edge. Only problem was, it wasn't what i ordered, although it did have the name "Rebel's Splatter Kake" on the pot. When I checked the website, I could see possibly why the mix-up. Their pictures are right next to each other. This violet is now my adopted favorite, maybe because it surprised me, telling me every day with a big smile of blooms, "Gotta Love Me!" VB note: it's possible that plant mutated/sported into 'Rebel's Night Breeze' which sometimes happens. We do guarantee first bloom to be true to description.
Blooming!
Couldn't believe that it arrived in bloom....darling blossom!
Beautiful Flowers!!
Violet Barn always does and excellent job and this is a beautiful cluster ball of color and ruffles! Enjoy.
Lovely big blooms
I got his one last week and it has bloomed already. I love the color. I am amazed by the difference between these plants and the standard grocery store variety that I always got (and loved) before. I wish i had found his place sooner.
Gorgeous Color
I fell in love with the color the minute I saw the picture and still love it now that I have it in my home. I think it shapes nicely and has grown faster than most of my other standards.
Starry Night Blue
I decided I needed a new hobby. But before I decided this my boyfriend and I were at home depot looking for mothers day flowers, I came across african violets and I thought the flower was so pretty and I ended up bringing one home. Over the past few months I have ordered so many from this site and this flower is probably my favorite! It has beautiful huge iridescent deep purple flowers and with the lighting we have set up they sparkle like crazy. It's also my boyfriends favorite - surprisingly he has grown quite fond of this new hobby of mine.
Eye popping blooms
It put up a bloom within just a couple of weeks of arriving at my home. The plum color is rich and the white pencil edge highlights the shapes of the ruffled petals. The first bloom measures 2 1/4 inches across, and there are two more bloom stalks already shooting up. all in all, a very dramatic presence in my collection!
picture perfect!!
Blooms look just like the picture and they are huge. The plant is still small so when you look at the plant all you see is these huge flowers...you will LOVE it!!
Starry Night Blue
Beautiful violet! Strong growth habit and in constant bloom. A must have!
Massive!
This is not only beautiful but has grown to a massive size! I propagated one for my mother and hers is the same size. I cannot tell you the exclamations on beauty and size we get. So happy with this one!
My Favorite!
I've grown hundereds of different african violets over the years....but this one ranks right up there as one of my most favorites! The large flowers (up to 3 inches!) are a wonderful dark plum with a strong white edge. The foliage is very large growing, but behaves nicely. I think this one is under appreciated since I don't hear much about it from other growers/fanciers...and that's a shame!
