Did you know... that in 1994, 25 thousand african violet seeds (supplied by the Optimara Co) were held in outer space for 6 years to test radiation and microgravity effects.  The resulting plants are the EverFloris series and so now any registered variety with Ever attached to the front of the name is a space baby?

Did you know... that the african violet 'Blue Boy' (one of the very first 10 hybrids released in 1927) is the genetic foundation for the mutated development of double blooms (in 1939), girl foliage ('Blue Girl') and the first pink bloom ('Pink Beauty")?

DID YOU KNOW.....that one of the easiest ways to kill your African Violet is to overwater it? Here is an article from the African Violet Society of America website with some tips about watering african violets. https://africanvioletsocietyofamerica.org/learn/violets-101/2146-2/
