Lucky Me (6298) 06/30/1986 (J. Domiano) Double orchid/darker mottling, variable purple edge. Light green, plain, glossy. Large (DAVS 942)
Two of my passions are African Violets and wild Mustang horses. My hope is to blog about both here... the violets that I'm growing (or lusting after!) and the wild Mustangs that I visit at Sand Wash Basin, CO when I can.

Lucky Me - first post in a few years?
I know it's been a long time since I've posted here but I've had a lot of stuff going on and I lost most of my plants as a result. I'm getting back into the swing of things and Lucky Me is one of the plants that I've found again for my collection. If I could only grow 10 plants or less, this would be on that list.
Lucky Me is one of the most gorgeous violets, in my opinion. I'll be
putting a couple leaves down this afternoon to ensure that I don't lose
it because it's one of the extremely rare ones. I hope to grow this one
for the rest of my days. <3

I'm sad to say that we moved shortly after this and my plant did not survive. If anyone has this plant at all, PLEASE let me know. It's one of my all-time favorites and I will make room on my shelves for it. I have a sibling from this seed cross called Makin' Romance but it's just not quite the same.
ReplyDeleteHi Sally,
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear you lost your plant.
Wondering if you still have Tipt?
I do have Chenille if you’re still searching...
