Thanks for introducing the wonderful plants in such a colorful way. I discovered African Violets' relatives just a year ago and got addicted right away. I was surprized they didn't require too much care and got thrilled when could start a bunch of sinningias from seed. Here some of my treasures which I was so lucky to get from my gardening friends.
