I just took out a book from library:

You Can Grow African Violets by Kent & Joyce Stork. It's the offician guide authorized by the African Violet Society of America.

I think this would be a great addition to your library. I'm going to buy one for myself. I usually check out the books from library, to see if they are worthwhile before is buy.

Growing to Show by Pauline Bartholomew

Anything by Melvin Robey. You can porbably get them in a library or order through the inter-library catalog. Amazon sells them too.

PROBABLY...one of these days.. senior moments galore

Start with Bartholomew's Growing to Show.
You can get this directly from AVSA.

You can get most of the old AV books from www.abebooks.com where books are around $1.00 and postage is around $10.00
