violets

My pink African Violet has finally bloomed, and it is my favorite.

I love the dusky pink, velvety flowers against the soft dark foliage.

The purple one has more flowers but doesn't look as healthy. From above you can see that the older, outer leaves are pale and some of them mottled.

I'm hoping they don't have mites like the other plants did, but I looked carefully and don't see any signs.
