African violet (av) - saintpaulia

I'm crazy about them - I've made hundreds of photos in my and my mum's collections (we are together suffering av virus). Right now I have a collection to fit in windowsills and 1 shelf near the window - only natural daylight - no lamps.
I prefer mini and semi- mini varieties and trailing av with longer stems, which can be grown several together.
Some minis and semi-minis:

 

Several trailing varieties:







These photoes show the best blooming archieved. This season I'll add pictures in "What's blooming now" theme .

 

They're lovely Alisa. Sundown Trail is my fav from your photos....such a beautiful colour.

 

African violets are one of the things I collect. I have lots of them. There are a couple of other people on here that collect them too. We have even sent each other leaves to propagate from.
You have some beauties there.

 

Thank you!

In reality it's quite dark and I love full flowers. There are always problems to catch blue/purple and red colours with my camera.

Wonderful! I would be happy to share leaves and possibly plantlets, because I'm propagating some varieties right now. I'm looking for several varieties as well.

Why there are no generiads forums? I couldn't find.

 

Nobody has started one!
Excuse my humour - start a Gesneriaceae thread and I'll add to it. I think that the Other Plants sub forum is the ideal place.

 

In fact I'm curious why there no separate forums like there are about cactuses? Are gesneriads much less popular?

 

Can you imagine how long the sub forum list would be!

 

I've done it for you @Alisa

Thank you!
Ups... I'm sorry, I did ask in the wrong way. I was thinking not about exactly this forum, but the web in general, when I've found British Streptocarpus Society webpage, for example, I was upset, they don't have forum to discuss all about these plants, share photos and so on.

 

Well, you have a thread here now
