Technically yes, but I doubt that will be a stable one, most likely just a chance sport, but it would be nice if it reproduce true through cutting.
The variegated AV that circulated in my area always came true through cuttings.
I will try to leave propagated that one for a fun experiment

Most of the named variegates have stable or genetic variegation. There are "chimera" african violets: Ones that are not named cultivars based on the variegated leaves but are chimeras on an existing cultivar.

Rebloom on Louisiana

My mystery leaf cutting baby finally in full bloom. It is obviously not the pale lavender double one:

I like it, though. I guess the other one was the leaf cutting that didn't take...

A nice frilly one, very vibrant too!

Here is a leaf propagation, I think it's 2-3 months old? Eh. Ma's Debutane (cultivar name).

So is it a miniature then? I love, love, love the variegated ones, but am more into the standards. I loved the Buckeye ones from Pat Hancock.

This one's a standard . In a small pot to prevent overpotting

What a well-grown cutie, sedumzz!

I have not grown African violets or any gesneriads for that matter, in many years. I had a lovely collection of Achimenes once upon a time. There is a AV show and swap going on right now in Jacksonville and this is one of the photos they posted on Facebook. Wow, I don't remember ever seeing anything like this, their other photos were just as interesting.

My pitiful collection of violets, just starting to bloom. @ardesia, that bloom in your photo is stunning!

Those are some nice AVs!

One of my Achimenes rhizomes has produced above ground growth! So exciting to see!

That's pretty early. Are they in a greenhouse?

I've had them indoors over the winter keeping the soil dry until I see signs of life.

Mine are kept inside unheated areas. It can get warm on the porch with a glass front at times, but it also can sit in upper 30s and low 40sF at times. Some varieties show up earlier than others. I've grown a couple and no matter what I do, they don't put in an appearance until June. And my area of Texas is warm long before that date. Even the earlier ones usually wait until May.

Donald - do you grow yours outdoors during the growing season? What type of sun exposure is best? I am growing mine only for one year now and my experience is only with growing them indoors under lights.

Outdoors. Dappled shade. They hang from and under Post Oak canopies. They like warmer temps, but dislike the extreme heat we get. They complain about that. They actually do best in 80sF temperatures. Some will begin bloom at the end of June sometimes, but those are the early to bloom. Some of the late ones begin blooming in early fall and often to see blooms have to be brought inside to avoid frost. Achimenes are pickier about receiving regular water on a timely basis. If you fail to far along, it basically triggers dormancy and will cost you that years' blooms. Eucodonias are a bit more forgiving of going dry. Gives you more time to correct the lapse. At least those I grow do that. There really is a pretty wide range of wakeup time, beginning bloom, length of bloom among the ones I have. They don't always correlate. Yellow Beauty is among the last to begin growth, but among the earliest to begin it's bloom cycle and that's a long cycle if conditions aren't too harsh. In my location, some years the weather is just not agreeable.

Thanks Donald. I appreciate you taking the time to describe growing Achimenes outdoors. I will have to experiment with sun exposure here in Delaware. I don't have natural vegetation to hang pots so I would have to create a shady area using shade cloth.

Maybe not. I've exposed them to a lot more direct sun than I'd been told they could take and they did pretty well. The summer sun here in my area of Texas is no joke either. I think temperature and humidity are key to a successful season. Oak leaves put off a lot moisture in the growing season. Origins of the plants are tropical and humid. Unpleasantly humid to humans, but not necessarily high temperatures. I saw them growing in a rain forest in Costa Rica. They were blooming and growing on a west facing sharp drop on a trail. They were in a window of sun on the occasions it put in an appearance.

Wow you saw them growing in habitat, how cool and exciting that must have been. I do appreciate the information you're sharing. I was of the mindset that all gesneriads would fry in open sun. I was given advice to put my Sinningia plants in open sun and after I followed the guidance my plants partied on like it's 1999.
