My paternal grandmother loved these! She had two tables filled with them, with grow lights before anyone had those, and little water tubs under each one.
Now I’m wondering if Big African Violet started a movement amongst our Grand’s to grow these flowers? I mean there was no internet to tell her about it, or how. But she knew everything one needed to know to make these finicky creatures grow AND thrive.

Mine did too! I’ve been meaning to pick some up for nostalgia.

That’s awesome
I hadn’t thought about her enthusiasm for African violets in years, so thanks for bringing that up. :-)
You’re welcome
