Thank you all, for your nice comments and thumbs-ups! My mum always had beautiful African violets on the dining room table. I can grow almost anything in my yard (if I pay attention to my zone), but I really have no luck with indoor plants at all. Somehow I manage to kill them all. However, in the past two years, since Mum passed, I've kept these alive in her honor, and they always surprise me when they bloom so nicely.
