The Optimara Virginia that I repotted and tried to save on Monday is no more. Not surprised from how it looked that day. But I was surprised that the Deep Sky sucker that I separated and potted last week didn’t make it. And the original plant doesn’t look very good either. Fortunately I have leaves down for both these.

I potted up one baby of Ness’ Fantasy Gold today.

White Madonna is looking great!

I had to rearrange all my plants on the shelves in my office so we could put the fan in the window. No small task, but I think I have everything taken care of for now. Unless it’s a mini, no more violets upstairs for a couple of months!
