The most popular blooming plant in the world is the African Violet (SAINTAPAULIA). And for good reason, they bloom continuously, twelve months a year. Plus they are easy to grow, a filtered light window with warm temperatures is all you need. Keep evenly moist, not wet dry. The variety and color of the violet you will receive will vary with the season. Novelty African Violets are unusual varieties not normally found for sale.

I Am Fully Satisfied with This Purchase
I have been growing African Violets for over 50 years. This is the first time I have been brave enough to order any replacements over the internet. Being a little wary, I bought just 2 plants, They were ordered on Aug 3 from CA, and they arrived on Aug 6 to my home in AZ. The 4" pots were packaged very carefully in plastic, paper, and peanuts. Sad to say, a few leaves broke off in transit. But, the good news is that the plants were in good condition otherwise. The potting mix was still moist, and the plants are covered in blooms. I watered and misted them with water containing African Violet plant food, and set them out among my other plants that I am happy to say, are all blooming successfully. I would consider purchasing more in the future--but too bad I can't make personal selections. UPDATE: I ordered 2 more violets and they came with no damaged leaves at all, and were colors and petal types that I didn’t have! I highly recommend this company.

African Violets
Both plants are healthy and beautiful, It's a good thing that there is so much packing peanuts in it . The USPS is not careful with the packages. Mine was all crumpled up and banged in . It would have been nice to get 2 different colors , I got 2 different shades of pink . They are beautiful , and healthy plants.

Only one made it past the first week
One arrived in bad shape I think from shipping even though it was packaged nicely. It died with in the first week. The other is beautiful and doing well.

Both plants arrived quickly and healthy. They continue to thrive - Thanks!
The price was excellent and both plants arrived healthy and continue to thrive. I understand that it might not be possible with such a low price, but the only improvement would be the ability to choose the color/variety when ordering.

Packaging was great
One was dead when it arrived and the other im trying to bring back to life had all brown around the leaves, and wilted.

Changing my review to positive
Previously I gave a negative review. The violets I initially received were dead. Then the company sent me new plants without my requesting them. Now, months later and I am very happy to say that the new plants are thriving and blooming. So impressed that a company would stand by their product and value their customers.

Packing and plant condition were both bad.
The two plants looked pretty bad when I received them, packing was messy , I had to remove lot of damaged leaves , it’s too much trouble to return so I ended up still keeping them both. They are doing better now.

Live Plants can be in bad shape
I received 2 african violets that were packed well. However, they were drying out and quite a few of the flowers died within a few days. I will have to repot them very soon and hope that they come back well as they get adjusted to the room they are in and the indirect light.
