I'm new to African Violets and I thought this book was really helpful.

If you want to know all there is to know about raising and growing African Violets, this is the book to go for. It has everything - but doesn't endow the reader with green fingers sadly. They are devilishly difficult to propogate and grow in the home, but if you succeed, they are incredibly beautiful.

Great resource.

[Laura Gilfillan · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book was written quite awhile ago, and much is outdated. But A. violets are still A. violets, and his advice on their care is sound. A good book to read, especially since there don't seem to be very many other books about A. violets out there.
