New plants from the Violet Sale

Here are photos of some of the plants that I came home with from the Violet Sale. :)



 Maas' Janet - I have a leaf of this one.

 Rob's Bahama Mama - I have leaves of this one
(I was told that this is likely Rebel's Rose Bud, not Rob's Bahama Mama. Either I took a photo of the wrong plant or else it was mislabeled.  I don't know.)

Rainbow's Quiet Riot - I have leaves of this one 

Judie's Satin Doll

RMAVC Sale photos

What I brought with me to the sale. Sold some, gave the rest away. I know a few are in good homes... hope the rest are too!



Powder Keg is the red in front. Behind is is Firebird II, the blue blossom in the upper middle is Picasso and the purple in the middle is unknown. It was labelled as Nortex' Starlet Haven but it's not.



Maas' Janet in the center with the large dark green leaves and purple blossoms. I have a leaf of that one now. The blue in the back by the guy's hand is Geneva Wonder. The light pink in the front right is Magnolia that now belongs to me. :) Thank you, Irina!

Rob's Bahama Mama


Hand Picked, a wonderful vintage from 1969. I love the foliage but I'm not crazy about the blooms. The foliage makes is a "must have" and it will end up in my collection at some point!

Rainbow's Quiet Riot






What's left at the end!

Went to a Violet sale today


Sold/gave away 7 starters and was good... only *bought* 1 plant and 3 sets of leaves!

Do you know what they do at the end of a sale though? LOL

They GIVE things away! At least they did today! And I ended up with so many more plants and leaves, it's crazy! Since I hadn't planned to come home with these ones, I'm wondering if anyone can tell me about growth on them? :D

Plants:
Cherries and Cream
Magnolia
Plum Gem
Reka Volga
Colonial Werries Creek

Leaves:
Island Hideaway
Glimmer
Rebel's Splatter Kake (I bought this one and then realized it was large... is it really???)
Ma's Fuzzy Slippers
Rechke Severka (not sure on the spelling of this one but it's a Russian Trailer)
Cutie
Christine
Maas Janet
Jolly Eyes
Rob's Cotton Ball
Rob's Dust Storm

I bought leaves of Rainbow's Quiet Riot (the plants that I saw were breathtaking!) and a plant of Judie's Satin Doll. I know nothing about Judie's Satin Doll but it was so pretty! I took photos of the blooming plants before I disbudded, so I'll post them when I can.
