I have four right now and only one has a name (Rob's Astro Zombie) and it's the only one that has never bloomed. These plants keep me happy when I am waiting for my orchids to bloom.

Yours are beautiful!

I will add my single African Violet here. It is new and some leaves were truncated but it was in good health otherwise. I like the dark, bold color even though it isn't anything fancy.

I don't have that color but I have always wanted it. I always wait till they discount them and I never find the dark purple discounted 😞

It is a pretty common one. It will be yours cheaply someday.

The first one is great, I love the pinking effect on the petals.

I have a baby pink double flower, and a very old white. The old white one has been destroyed multiple times. Today I was looking at a display of them and almost walked out with two. I needed herbs more. I went home with lavender and varigated sage instead.
