    I like Pink Summit, a nice bright frilly pink single with a bright white edge.

    I really like the Pink Summit. I think this will go well with my Frozen in Time violet. I found it at the violet barn and have it on order. Thanks for your responses. Pembroke

    Pink Summit is really pretty! And I don't normally like pink. I may have to try this one though.

    Maggie Lee is great too. Flowers look a lot like Pink Summit. Large plant, fast growing, nice rounded leaves shape easily.

    My personal favorite is Chanticleer. It's a double, and vintage.

    If you want a double pink blossom take a look at Dumplin'

    Dumplin' (3931) 05/23/1980 (J. Swift) Double pink two-tone. Plain, quilted. Large (TX Hyb)

    On the subject of pink AVs, does anyone know what this one is?

    I found it in an image search on google, and now I just have to find it!

    Sonority ...

    The violet in your picture really looks white with pink edging.

    Take a look at 'Sunday Best' on www.lyndonlyon.com

    'Sunday Best' will be a standard.

    Here is a pic of my Pink NOID. I purchased at a big box store this spring. When it stopped blooming I took it apart and repotted. It just started to bloom again. I have a great pic, but can't get it here. HELP!

    Cork - shrink it to under 100kb, post it in a Gallery section - and put a link in a Discussion.

    Cork -

    your violets are not very fancy - but they are amazingly well grown. Healthy - shiny - great color of the leaves and blossoms.

    That's another thing - no matter how elaborate is the variety - if it is not a well grown plant - it sucks.

    That's why on Shows - you have most of the points for the culture and condition of the plant - not for the quantity and quality of the blossoms.

    Good Job!
