A gift that keeps on giving

My sister gave me these African violets for Christmas. They came into bloom for the first time in their cute little lives this week. She started them from her own plant. Carefully nurturing them from leaf cuttings. I’ve always loved this plant of hers the intense color of the flowers is wonderful.
