I'm still trying to figure out how to transfer plants from the data base so if the picture doesn't show up you can look under Apache Heartbeat in the AV data base. The variegation some times has light green, white, and sometimes pink. There are several more variegated violets there and I haven't had any more trouble growing them than the plain leaf ones. The dwarf AV's don't get very big even if you put them in a large pot they still stay dwarf. The semi-dwarf doesn't get nearly as big as a Standard but quite a bit larger than a dwarf. (Rob's Love Bite in the data base)
Rob's Slap Happy Semi- Dwarf , slightly variegated.


Lacy Lass Standard.

You can see how much larger both the leaves and the flowers are in the Standard
