Looking for an African violet with white leaves

My girlfriend bought me an African violet (just marked 'Saintpaulia') for my birthday. It had white flowers and creamy white leaves with no green in them at all. She bought it because it seemed unusual. Unfortunately, the specimen she bought (the only one like it) was really, really small (in a 1 inch pot) and it was hard to control the watering for it. One by one it dropped all of its leaves and died. I have now spent 4 months looking for a replacement. I have found some with variegated leaves, but none with pure white leaves. Does anyone have a source for a violet like this? Ideally, I'd like to buy one in a 4 inch pot.
