African Violets... in Bloom!

Gardening season outdoors is slowly winding down, but indoors some of my African Violets are beginning to bloom!

These face to the west, in a window that gets direct sunlight around mid-afternoon.

I never have figured out their blooming season - if they have one!

But I do enjoy them - any time they surprise me with their colorful flowers.





I'm still hoping the nearby orchid will take the hint and burst into bloom as well. My mother's beautiful orchid (in her north-facing nursing home window) is almost always blooming! But then, her room is constantly warm. Much more like Hawaii... all year long.
