Central Jersey African Violet Society 2010 Show

http://www.fuzzyfoliage.com Just a little video I took at our show last weekend. It was the first time I ever entered a plant and I got a big fancy rosette and a spot on the winners table--WHOOHOO!

George McDonald (hybridizer of the 'Mac's' series of African violets) did the educational display where it shows all the various plants he got from just one cross--A lotta diversity there, right??

Winners Table:
Best in Show - Buckeye Blushing - David Tooker
Best Trailer - Kissaway Trail - Lenny Winter
Best Miniature/2nd Best In Show - Indigo _____ - George McDonald
Best Semiminiature - Double Berry - David Tooker
Best Gesnariad - Chirita Destiny - Jan Murasko
Best Saintpaulia Species - Ron Ennis
Best Novice - Little Blue Bandit - Ann-Marie "m3rma1d" Keene

@gildyandbirdy well Karma will come back to them they may bring them back if they cant sell them or get them to grow

[m3rma1d]

@gildyandbirdy It's a bad idea to put them outside at all. For one, as you learned, the risk of theft. But also the insects/bugs outside can hop on the plants, come in with them, and can wipe out a collection. I would never bring them outside for that reason. When you do rebuild a collection, leave them inside for sure!
