Featured violet: Arctic Frost

ARCTIC FROST (S.SORANO) SEMI DOUBLE WHITE, LARGE STAR, VARIABLE BLUE EYE AND BLUE EDGE. MEDIUM GREEN. STANDARD.  

Huge blooms! This is one violet that takes FOREVER to bloom from a leaf cutting.  It is also one that is very fussy about water temperature. Leaves discolor very easily if the water is warmer or cooler than room temperature. Pretty blossoms are worth the fuss.
