This is a knock-out.

Love-In-Bloom is even prettier ...

Beautiful flower and leaves!

Indeed, love in bloom is prettiest. Here is an Apache. J

More beautiful plants! What is the name of your Apache? I am attempting to grow a couple but they are young plants yet.

Terri

I will have to look at the tag and let you know. Might be either Primrose or Victory.
The ones I have seem to be similar. They grow very slowly, but not
as slowly as other variegates. They also grow symmetrically.
Where did you get yours? What size plant did you start with?
Thanks for looking. Sorry the photos are large and upside down! I have not mastered the art of posting.

Joanne, I bought leaves of my Apache and Wrangler varieties from Jo's Violets. Next time, I will probably order plants as I don't seem to have as much patience to wait for plants from leaves as I once did!

HI Terri
I got small plants of them, also from Jo. They took a long
time to develop, but turned out nice.
Leaves do take a long time and are more likely to not develop as well as small plants. I got another small plant
from Lyon's of Apache that was in bloom when it arrived.
It arrived well grown and is continuing to do well. Joanne

They're all fabulous!!!!!

They are fun. They also stay small, an advantage for me.
I killed a lot of variegates before I got to this stage. J
