This is a slightly different view of the African Violets on the bedroom windowsill. Although the photo was taken in November they are still flowering now & doubtless will do so through all of December .

Thank you, ladies. It rather unusual to have them flowering so well at this time of year as they are a long day plant, i.e.: they need many hours of light in which to blossom. Years ago they used to be grown under grow lights to get them to flower for longer periods. As these are above a radiator they obviously enjoy the extra heat!
