Violet

I have never been going with plants.  My Mother and Grandmother always had flowers every where during the summer and in every room during the winter months. 

When my Grandmother died a few years ago, my  Mother told me to bring the violets home because she had never been able to keep African Violets alive. 

I brought them home with no hope of them surviving.  I started with three.  I know have over 20 plants now.  I love that I started with my Grandmother's plants.  This is one of the original plants. 

Thank you for letting me share a picture of one of the violets and a memory of my Grandmother Gunter.  Even though, I didn't know her as well as my other Grandmother (they died two weeks a part), I still miss her.

Have a great day everyone.
