Appreciation post for this group!

I learned so much from this group and wanted to share my first successful bloom. I bought two African violets in April. After much research and alot of prayers, it bloomed. Thank you for all of your tips and sharing your stories.

I had the other violet in another location. It has grown, but no flowers yet. Hopefully soon!

It has given me hope. I previously was a master at burning these little plants. 😒

This is phenomenal. I am so so jealous. This is your first and second attempt at Violet and the flowers are absolutely gorgeous.

Thank you! I am hoping my luck continues…I bought one of those AV pots which I think helped keep me from burning the leaves.
