Three Outstanding New African Violets 
STAR AMETHYST 
STAR AMETHYST’S magnificent flower, the incomparable 
color of an Indian Amethyst, is a distinctive star shape, 
distinguished by triple pollen. The many blooms average 
at least 1% inches in diameter. The medium green foliage 
is firm and easily handled, the plant propagates easily, 
blooms profusely, and keeps well. It is a worthy addition 
to our Gem Line of African Violets, which originated with 
the now famous STAR SAPPHIRE, Plant Patent No. 1187. 
CRAIG’S MONARCH 
CRAIG’S MONARCH is a king among blue African Violets. 
The regal blue flower, of majestic size, averages 12 
inches in diameter. The plant blooms profusely, propagates 
easily, and both flower and medium green foliage hold up 
very well. 
CRAIG’S PURPLE EMPEROR 
CRAIG’S PURPLE EMPEROR produces an extraordinary 
number of large flowers, 114 inches in diameter, a beauti- 
ful royal purple color. The medium green color is graceful 
and elastic, the plant holds itself with the regal grace of 
a born emperor.
