    I used to grow violets and streps quite successfully. I was very good at propagating both and ended up with maybe hundreds.
    I moved and have just bought three AVs named after states. They don't have blooms so I don't know the color they are;
    they are optimaras. I have sent away for strep seeds and AV seeds. I have never tried them. But if any of you have
    leaves of both or either, I would like to buy a few to get started. It will take a while to grow from seeds. In the middle of
    winter it is nice to have things that grow and bloom - both are so beautiful.
