I got my lady a basket of live plants yesterday.  I got the basket with a nice African violet in it because of this thread.

Nice! I like the pure white color. You know, since these are typically propagated by cuttings, it wouldn't surprise me if you were able to get self sees out of that one plant if you'd find some nice diversity in the offspring. Don't wait till you get another one. Get some pollinating done now and you'll have pods developing already by the time you get another plant to cross with.

And keep us updated! And what color is the phal in the background? Those can be cool too




yeah man,that one actually has a tinge of pink in it too:grin:I'm going to get a few more,and propagate some cuttings:thumbup:are you talking about that orchid in the background?

yep, the orhchid. looks like a phalaenopsis.

anyway, this thread is about AVs so I'll get back on topic.

After my last post I started reading about them again and starting to get excited about making some more crosses. I gotta get my leftover seeds planted. although from what I read they dont last that long if not stored cold. I had them in the fridge for the most part, but got rid of that little frdge a few months ago.....

I did read up about selfing them to see if they are capapble of selfing, and it looks like they can, so I'd try that and get some pods going

yeah,that orchid is my brothers wife's.I was thinking of getting my own,but they are rather pricey!You need to get those seeds started though,and do a log on here.I'd be interested to see how it goes:grin:Maybe I'll get some seeds on mine,and do the same.I've been looking to buy more specimens,but all the ones I've found have been in poor shape.
