Thanks to a lovely member of this community (sadly I cannot remember who, as it was a while ago, and I have goldfish brain 😅) alerted me that a special plant that my momma bear and I both had been pining for was actually available. So of course I bought us matching babies. I really need to be better about snapping pictures when they are new and in their wonky baby/teenager stages. I guess I’m too busy taking pictures of flowers 🤪. In any case, I do hope she grows to be as lovely as some of the specimens I have seen posted on this forum. 🥰🤞 (September 7th, and today respectively 🌸)

Enjoy. It is a most lovely variety. Now you just need to get Watermelon Snow and Cosmic Snowball. Sports of Rose Bouquet.
I bought 2 Rose Bouquet leaves from an Ebay seller and remember telling someone in this group where I got them. If it was you, are you saying your babies have already grown this much?!? Mine are still in their bags. Last I checked, I only had pups!!
I found an article from Dew Violets on how to successfully grow highly variegated AVs like Rose Bouquet and Watermelon Snow. I’ve struggled with several starters of Watermelon Snow in the past 6 months and some other highly variegated AVs.
I’m just nervous to let any of my leaves out of their bags or domed cups.
What a lovely plant! I love Rose Bouquet, I hope yours keeps growing and blooming!
