African Violet


African Violet

This was a rescue from the salvage pile at The Home Depot. I paid $1.00 and it was nearly dead. It managed to crank out a single flower for me.

Very satisfying when we nurse a 'bargain' back to health!

And what a pretty flower it is. Worth all 100 pennies.

Well rescued. Rewarded you with an unusual flower.

I just repotted it, gave it some food and put it next to the other violets.

Thanks Amy. It's nice to see it bloom when it's freezing outside. I hope it gets big and bushy.
