Frozen in Time flower

9 years ago

If you have been on here for any time you know I've had trouble with frozen In Time reverting back to purple.:-( So I keep on starting leaves in hopes I'll get back to the original color scheme. After starting several leaves this Winter this is what I have. Close but still has a little purple around edge. I still have several more as you can see in the other post waiting to potted. So I keep trying. Pembroke

Personally, I really like the touch of purple in the flowers.

I ran across an mention of why flower colors change into purple. The article stated it was a symptom of imbalanced Ph. I don't know if that was referring to a specific flower or flowers generally. I just glanced at the information.
Might be worth it to check your PH

The purple is actually completely normal for Frozen in Time. Here's the official description that the hybridizer submitted to the African Violet Society of America:

Frozen in Time (9167) 02/03/2003 (Lyndon Lyon Greenhouses/Sorano) Single-semidouble white star/variable lavender tinge; green edge. Variegated light green and ivory, quilted. Standard.

No need to worry about pH or any disease here. Looks like a happy, healthy plant.

Thank you for posting. When you referred us to older posts about this plant, I was interested to see what it looked like. It is amazing. J
