Growing African Violets

This one is a stretch, friends, but I think it can still qualify as a LotRs craft!

Like Sam, I am a gardener. And an avid grower of houseplants. My speciality is raising common and exotic African violets. Here's the latest:

Thank you! Of course, the violet deserves much of the credit. *grins* But I did water it and praise it and tell it how beautiful it is. Yes, I talk to plants. I'm sure this surprises nobody. :D

Gorgeous!! And you are quite right! I am sure that gardening like Sam qualifies...
