I'm so excited to have finally gotten my hands on a Watermelon Snow African violet. It lost a few leaves in transit but I'm just going to propagate those. I literally had to fight someone on eBay who set up an autobid for every single Watermelon Snow listing. I just think the variegated leaves are so pretty with the pale pink flowers.
Here's a photo of an adult flowering plant from Dew Violet:

The more light they get, the more variegated the leaves become, and I'm hoping to get quite a bit. I have my violets under quite a bit of light, more than they could probably tolerate if it was sunlight, but they're flourishing under it with grow lights. 😊
