My picture "Bible"for vintage African Violets & Episcias"

As an African Violet & Gesneriad grower, enthusiast, and self proclaimed "Gesneri-addict", I strongly recommend this publication. I got this book when it was first published. I wanted a book that wood provide me with reliable information about African Violet culture. I found so much more than what I had expected. Mr. James included flourescent lighting information, soil recommendations, and great propagation tips as well. I still, to this day, refer back to this book when I want to see what some of the vintage Optimaras, "Rhapsody", "Ballet" and other great older varieties look like. He also includes some great growing info on Sinningias, Episcias, Aeschynanthus, and Standard Florist Gloxinia. In conclusion, this book has a lot of nostalgic value to me. Having grown African Violets for over 23 years....I love seeing pictures of the vintage varieties like "Ballet" and "Rhapsody" . These were the varieties available in the stores when I first started growing violets! I love this book and strongly recommend it to both novice African Violet enthusiast and advanced!
